“Santa praising God reminds us of the meaning of Christmas. Our men’s group does this every year at Jubilee Shores United Methodist Church outside of Fairhope. Each of us takes a night the week before Christmas. It means a lot to kids passing by.

It means a lot to me, too. I kneel and praise God, thanking Him for my family and His blessings. I also pray for our community, especially the kids going through hard times this Christmas. This is a way to spread joy and hope. I wish I could do more.

Kneeling Santa is a reminder that God is here for all of us. We just need to stop and be thankful.

Merry Christmas.”
