Keep Christ in Christmas

Giving that the Knights of Columbus are a religious group, each Christmas they celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. Every year the Knights dedicate their time in reminding society that Christmas is a holy day. They use their "Keep Christ in Christmas" campaign. Hers's a list from their website that they have given to help guide people of the ways they can support the cause:


  • Serve or prepare meals at a soup kitchen.
  • Bring presents to children or elderly people in the hospital.
    Clean, repair and refurbish a church in a poor neighborhood.
    Visit someone who’s shut-in.
  • Send a Christmas card to someone you have not seen or talked to in years.
    Invite a friend or neighbor who will be alone to share your Christmas celebration.
  • Reconcile with a friend or relative with whom you have quarreled. Apologize if you were wrong.
  • Provide transportation to shelters for homeless people.
  • Wish people you meet a good day and a happy and holy Christmas.
  • Get the family together to clean out all the closets and dressers. Donate usable clothing, shoes, blankets and other items to a program for needy families.
  • Send care packages to military personnel stationed overseas.
  • Sing Christmas carols at nursing homes or hospitals.
  • Collect baby clothes, blankets, food, diapers or money and donate these items to an organization that helps needy people.
  • Supply car seats or cradles to underprivileged mothers.
  • Sponsor a drive for children to donate their old toys to youngsters.
  • Be a part of the holiday spirit by undertaking one or more of the items listed above and help make Christmas merry for someone else and yourself.
