What if your neighbor, just a few doors down, is waiting to hear about Jesus but feels too intimidated to walk into a church? What if that friend you chat with at school pickup or your Aunt Sally, who’s never really heard the gospel, encounters the truth of who Jesus is for the first time? What if, by simply opening your home, a life is changed forever?
Jesus met us where we were. He moved into the neighborhood to bring hope, love, and grace to people just like us. That same hope is available to everyone, and He’s inviting us to join Him in sharing that hope with the world.
That’s the heart of Neighborhood Christmas. It’s a global invitation, calling people from every corner to gather and celebrate, but it’s personal—it starts right where you are. Whether it’s your living room, your neighborhood clubhouse, or a rented venue, we want you to say “yes” and open your doors to friends, family, neighbors, or anyone in your life who needs to hear the message of Jesus this Christmas.
On December 5th, we’re releasing a special digital Christmas Eve service featuring worship from the Eleven22 worship team, a powerful message from Pastor Joby, and a moment to respond with worship. But the rest is up to you. You can gather in your home, reserve a community space, or even set up outside with some camping chairs. Wherever you are, we believe that when you say yes, God will show up in miraculous ways.
We’ll provide everything you need to make your gathering simple, meaningful, and memorable. All you have to do is open your space, invite your “one mores,” and press play. This is your chance to create a place where people can encounter the life-changing message of Jesus—no matter where they’ve been or where they’re going.
Will you say yes to making room for just one more person this Christmas?
It’s easy to become a host for Neighborhood Christmas! Just say “yes” to opening up a space—whether in your home, your neighborhood, or any local venue—and invite your neighbors, friends, and family to experience a Christmas Eve service like no other.
We’ll provide the digital service, along with tips, resources, and a step-by-step guide to make your gathering a success. The best part? You get to be a part of sharing the good news of the gospel with your people this year.
