The Christmas Truce at the Western Front WWI – 1914

December 9 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm

Join us for a heartwarming evening of history, reflection, and wonder as we explore one of the most extraordinary moments of World War I — the Christmas Truce of 1914. Amidst the frozen trenches and chaos of the Western Front, something truly magical happened. Soldiers on both sides, weary from battle, laid down their arms and stepped into no-man’s-land — not to fight, but to share carols, stories, small gifts, and even a game of football. For one silent, starlit night, peace triumphed over war — a powerful reminder of our shared humanity and the enduring spirit of Christmas. Guest Speaker Bill Albers, beloved for his captivating and insightful storytelling, will bring this moving chapter of history to life with rare photographs, personal letters, and firsthand accounts from those who witnessed it. Whether you’re a history enthusiast or simply in search of an inspiring holiday tale, this evening promises to warm your heart and stir your soul. Admission is free, but seating is limited — reserve your spot today!
