LDS present holiday gift to Latinos

Wonderful event! | 3:17 p.m. Dec. 7, 2007

We went last night, and although there are "no tickets left," in last night's case, the tabernacle was full, but more could have come in. At 6:30 there were still MANY MANY seats available (and pre-program music started then). If you have a desire to go, stand by the flagpole out of the tabernacle at 6:15--it was a great family event!

I would like to know if BYU-TV recorded the program because there are many latinos who would love to watch this celebration of Christmas in their first language; I am one of them. This would have been a great program to air on the BYU channel.

Diana, I agree with you, I live in Ecuador, South America, and I want to watch that Christmas Celebration, I'm sure all Spanish speaking members throughout the world would enjoy the program if it is aired.

A native of Uruguay, I have lived in the US for 40 years, but I do not live in Utah. It would be very thoughtful if sponsors of the Regalo de Navidad would make it available to those LDS living outside of Utah. Our family would be so grateful.

Tal cual, desde Argentina mismo estamos muy agradecidos por este "Regalo de Navidad" que nos brindan. Deseamos verdaderamente que al menos aca llegue por BYU-TV Internacioanl.

Kia Ora from New Zealand. I can appreciate the different cultural celebrations and I do have a beautiful Latino daughter inlaw fron Guatemala. They do live in Woods Cross so I'm sure that they will take their Family. My son served his mission in Guatemala they have 2 children. Christmas food for us in NZ is hangi Roast Pork cooked in the earth with all the trimmings of Potatoes, kumara, (a sweet potatoe.) Desserts are,English tifle, steamed pudding custard, ice cream and pies, apple strawberry, and whatever. NoT forgetting yummy native bread, carrots, Kai moana (sea food) Green salads. Have the best Cristmas ever with your families and the spirit and love of Christ.

I WAS IN THIS! And i'm only 12! it was really fun, but you had to practice for many months, practiclly all year. Its very tiring, but when your up there, the world goes away, and all thats left is your heart and soul, its a wonderful expirience.
