2022 Concert: Witnesses of Christmas | Symbols of Christ

Witnesses of Christmas – Symbols of Christ, an hour-long musical Christmas concert featuring ten performances by popular European performers, will be presented all across Europe by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, on 11 December 2022, at 5pm GMT. The presentation will focus on traditional Christmas symbols, like the star, tree, bell, gifts, etc. and their connection to Jesus Christ.
Elder Massimo De Feo, the faith’s Central Europe Area leader, said, “We invite everyone to enjoy this beautiful Christmas concert, and to share it with family, friends, and neighbours. It will entertain, it will gladden hearts and uplift spirits. It will gently remind us that the symbols of Christmas point us to love, charity and peace, and to the ultimate source of those virtues – the Lord Jesus Christ.”

All the performers donated their time and talents to the production free of charge, as did the ten performers in the ensemble that accompanied them.  Elder Hans T. Boom, president of the Europe North Area of the Church said that “this unique concert is a gift of love to all of Europe from the heart of every performer in it. I think viewers will feel that.”
Boom added, “This is the second year the Church of Jesus Christ in Europe has produced a beautiful Christmas concert, but the all-European talent roster in this year’s programme is very important to us – these are our neighbours and friends sharing “their talents and faith.”
