Christmas Festival of Lights

Value Night Tonight

Festival Continues Tonight

The Grotto's Christmas Festival of Lights is here! Open now through Dec. 30, except Christmas Day, this annual event celebrates the true meaning of Christmas with music, lights and joy.

Known as the world's largest Christmas Choral Festival, more than 150 choirs will perform over the course of 36 nights in the Chapel of Mary, with its cathedral-like acoustics. 

There are nightly puppet shows and caroling in the pavilion tent, and don't forget the millions of lights! Back by popular demand - our giant, walk-thru Christmas tree.

So get your tickets now and consider taking advantage of our value nights, tonight through Thursday, and next week, Dec. 4-7.

Please bring a non-perishable food item for SnowCap.

“Glory and praise for ever!”

Lord God, we pray today for our homeless brothers and sisters, especially in the city, Portland. As we prepare for this coming Christmas Season, may we share all the blessings you have given us. We may able to let go of the things we continue to keep in our closets or cabinets for a long time, yet we don’t really use them at all. During this coming season of Christmas, may we learn detachment and to live simply so that others may simply live. Please help us, Lord. This we ask in Jesus' Name. Amen.

St. Peregrine, pray for us.
