10th Annual Twelve Days of Christmas PAST – Re-cast for 2020! December 1-12, 2020
In spite of 2020’s “issues,” let’s all get into the spirit of Christmas! Read our inspiring stories gleaned from Church History’s Christmases Past then enter our daily prize contest by commenting (available each day) to answer a question about the story. Exciting daily prizes are from our travels both near & far!
The daily stories will be posted on our website BLOG from December 1 thru December 12. We have gathered our favorites together from our previous years’ contests to “re-cast” the past, yet again. You’re sure to enjoy them!
TO ENTER THE CONTEST, simply answer the story’s question by commenting on our BLOG or our FACEBOOK page’s daily post about that day’s blog story.
- All comments will be entered into a random drawing for a daily prize bundle (valued $40-$140/day!).
- “Sharing” our Facebook posts on your own page will also earn you another entry into the daily drawing. If you haven’t already done so, join us now on Facebook–it’s free! Click on this link to find our Facebook Page.
- Answers and the daily winner will be posted on our BLOG and FACEBOOK page the following morning. Prizes must be claimed within 30 days.
- Contest open to US residents 18 years and older. For more contest rules, SEE BELOW.
Our hope is that this activity, with a peek into Christmases Past, will help us all to slow down and appreciate the Christmases of simpler times and to learn something new to inspire us this holiday season. Tell all of your family and friends about this unique and festive way to remember our heritage–the more, the merrier!
Merry Christmas!
