I read the story of Jesus’s birth and listen to talks at church to remind me that Christmas is about the birth of Jesus Christ. Christmas isn’t just about presents and decorations.

My family makes a #LightThe World advent calendar for Christmas. It has cards for every day leading up to Christmas, and each card has a good deed we do each day. It helps us to come unto Jesus Christ and remember what Christmas is about.

We made a temple out of gingerbread. We donated it to a local fundraiser for a children’s hospital.

It was cold and snowy right before Christmas. My family had the idea to buy hot chocolate and gave it to people without homes. They were thankful and happy to see us. It made me feel happy too.
