Angels of Light Donation Drive

2025 is the 36th Anniversary of Angels of Light

Join Second Baptist Church to bless 9,000 Angels from Houston’s inner-city and surrounding communities with an unforgettable Christmas memory.

ONE PROGRAM, SIX CAMPUSES

During December 2-5, families are bused to one of our six campuses, where they are greeted enthusiastically and given a warm meal. The Angels also have an opportunity to take in festive decorations and our very own Christmas train display. Afterward, they settle in to watch a fun-filled Christmas program that finishes with a Gospel presentation. When the Angels return to their buses, they are surprised to find their seats filled with gifts.
