Keen to be involved?

Our official website for Saviour of the World has been updated with more information! 💛

This December, a special regional production of the official Church Christmas musical Saviour of the World will be presented in Auckland and broadcast across the Pacific Area.

This will be the New Zealand premiere of the Church’s annual Christmas production, traditionally performed in Salt Lake City. Under the direction of the Pacific Area Presidency, this production will bring together members from across the Auckland region to share their testimony of the Saviour during the Christmas season.

The performances will take place at the Due Drop Events Centre, directly across from the newly dedicated Auckland New Zealand Temple, highlighting the connection between the Saviour, the temple, and the eternal nature of families.
