For the past three years, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints celebrates the life of Jesus Christ through the #LightTheWorld initiative.

Last year, we wrote about some of the awesome #LightTheWorld happenings HERE.

This year, the theme for #LightTheWorld is GIVE AS HE GAVE.

Jesus Christ, the Light of the World, spent much of His ministry caring for individuals individually. With a renewed emphasis that President Nelson has put on serving THE ONE, #LightTheWorld is focusing more on WHO we serve as opposed to just HOW we serve.

Non-profit highlight: The Purple Centers Foundation is a non-profit organization working with families in the dumpsite and cemetery communities of the Philippines.

It’s a wrap! With the hardworking Church Public Affairs team who mounted two successful #LighttheWorld events in one day: the Giving Machine launch at the Mega Mall and tonight’s Temple Christmas Lighting. Great job, guys!

Eric Tai/Eruption invites people to donate to less fortunate people this Christmas season through the #LightTheWorld vending machines found in SM Megamall near the EDSA entrance. This was done in cooperation with UNICEF, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints/Mormons, Caritas, and possibly other organizations.
