Carolers at our Door


Every year, Hope of Life Church sends out nearly 3 dozen carolers to tour the city and sing sing sing!

This year, Emma led the way as one of our greatest turnouts yet sang to the families in our church as well as a few new families.

The tradition is: You let families know that you are coming and you ask if they would like you to stop by their place. If they say yes, you create a game plan and basically walk the entire city.

It's quite a bit of walking, so each house traditionally prepares something to eat and drink for all of the carolers. So, you sing at the door, one or two carols and then they invite you in for snacks. One lady this year served an entire meal. Our young people said that it was well worth it!

They were truly a blessing to each family, just as each family was a blessing to them.
