An annual Christmas tradition of acting out the Nativity story in the author’s family led to a personal experience of being an angel at a young age. Inspired by the role, the author realized the importance of angels in delivering messages of love and hope. Through scriptures and teachings, the author learned about the role of angels in guiding and blessing individuals.
The Light the World initiative from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has focused on spreading the message of being someone’s angel in 2024. This year’s theme aims to inspire people to participate in acts of kindness and service, becoming angels for others in need. The initiative has used videos and social media to showcase real-life angels from around the world, sharing stories of individuals making a difference in the lives of others.
Through the message of the Nativity story and the presence of angels, the Light the World campaign seeks to encourage people to feel the love of the Savior during the Christmas season. By engaging in acts of service and kindness, individuals can not only bring relief to others but also experience the love of Jesus Christ in their own lives. The campaign emphasizes the idea that anyone can be an angel for someone else by offering simple acts of support and compassion.
As the holiday season approaches, the call to be an angel for those in need resonates with the message of spreading love and joy. By recognizing the angels in our midst and extending a helping hand to others, individuals can create a ripple effect of kindness and compassion. The Light the World initiative serves as a reminder that by embodying the spirit of angels, we can bring light and hope to those around us.
