Christmas in Ocean Grove takes us back to where Christmas began: with the birth of Jesus. On Saturday, December 5, at 5 PM, the Living Nativity tells the story in the Great Auditorium. Afterward, head outside for the tree lighting, where a live band plays everything from sing-along favorites to sacred carols, and a special guest from the North Pole stops by.

Come early and make a day of it, with live music around Auditorium Square and the Christmas Marketplace in the Youth Temple. Whoever you are, you’re welcome here. Bring your family and friends and celebrate Christmas with us!
