The greening of the church for Christmas is a cherished tradition that involves adorning the sanctuary and surrounding areas with evergreens, symbolizing everlasting life and the hope brought by Christ’s birth. Typically, this includes wreaths, garlands, and Christmas trees made from pine, fir, or cedar branches. These natural decorations are often punctuated with red berries, pine cones, and white candles or lights to create a warm and inviting atmosphere.
