FAQs:
-What is it?
These events are a live walk through of unwrapping the true meaning of Christmas. You'll park on the West side of our building and make your way South East to our shuttle buses which will be waiting to take you a short distance down to our office building just a few blocks away. Once off the bus you'll be welcomed into a warm hospitality tent complete with delicious treats and hot chocolate. When it's time for your journey to begin you'll walk inside our office where you'll encounter a gift wrapping station (no gift wrapping offered) and then move into our Wrapped in Lights section. You'll then exit the office building and take the short walk back to our main building but along the way you'll encounter our Wrapped in Humanity portion with shepherds and live animals until you reach our live nativity scene. After that you'll head into our main building to see how Christ came Wrapped as a servant. You'll then move into the story of Christ's death through the tomb and into the garden and finish in our Main space seeing Christ Wrapped in Eternal Splendor and worshiping together. After that we will have another warm hospitality tent available for more delicious treats and hot chocolate!
