About A Churchland Christmas

Churchland Animal Clinic and Churchland Baptist Church are excited to bring the community together for A Churchland Christmas, a free, family-friendly Christmas celebration for Churchland and the surrounding community.

Our goal is to create more than a traditional vendor fair. We want A Churchland Christmas to be an interactive community Christmas experience that brings together local families, businesses, makers, community organizations, and performers for an evening of Christmas activities, entertainment, shopping, giving, and fellowship.

What to Expect

Enjoy a wonderful evening featuring:

  • Pictures with Santa
  • Christmas Giving Tree
  • Local businesses and community vendors
  • Blessing of the Animals
  • Pet sleigh photos
  • Holiday shopping and Christmas wreaths
  • Family-friendly games and activities
  • Community organizations and educational opportunities
  • Holiday entertainment and Christmas cheer

Admission is completely FREE, and leashed pets are welcome!

Parking Reminder: Please enter through the Churchland Boulevard entrance.

Bring your family, invite your friends, and celebrate the Christmas season with us!
