The billboard takeover at Times Square in New York City was part of Light the World, an annual movement to bring people from all over the world together to share the light of Jesus Christ during the Christmas season. The beautiful nativity scene that emerged from the blackout was a tender reminder of the Saviorβs birth and why we need His light and love in our lives.β―

Another part of Light the World is the Giving Machinesβvending machines with a twist. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints partners each year with global charities and local nonprofits to allow people to donate items to people in need, from a goat for a Syrian refugee to clean water for schools in Africa. They have raised more than $22 million since 2017. Learn more or find one near you at www.GivingMachine.org.β―
