You will have the opportunity to make a donation to help people in west central Minnesota, now through December 31st from 5:00 PM to 10:00 PM at Robbins Island. We enjoy sharing our love for the holiday season with our friends, neighbors and others through the magic of holiday lights. For the last 7 years, we have been doing a Christmas light display at our house. It started out as something that

we really enjoyed doing, as we are a bit goofy when it comes to Christmas lights. Over the past few years, our display has evolved to the point that we feel that it should be shared with everyone, and used to inspire and inform others about the Joy of Giving. Christmas is a time to get together with family and friends and look back on the past year. Most importantly, it is a time to remember the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ. Have you ever wondered what Christmas would be like if you had to worry what to feed your family, wondering if that last five dollars should buy your child a present or if you should put it towards your past due utility bills? Friends, there are hard working families in our community that face that very situation on a daily basis, and they need our help. The Willmar Salvation Army helps these families get back on their feet so that they can become independent again.

Our Story

Christmas is a time to get together with family and friends and look back on the past year. A time to think of how blessed each one of us are. Most importantly, it is a time to remember the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ. Have you ever wondered what Christmas would be like if you had to worry what to feed your family, wondering if that last five dollars should buy your child a present or if you should put it towards your past due utility bills? Friends, there are hard working families in our community that face that very situation on a daily basis, and they need our help. The Willmar Salvation Army helps these families get back on their feet so that they can become independent again.

For the last ten years, the Celebrate the Light of the World Christmas light display has happened at the Home of Chad and Angie Koosman. It started out as something that they really enjoyed doing, as they are a bit goofy when it comes to Christmas lights. Over the past few years, their display has evolved to the point that we feel that it should be shared with everyone, and used to inspire and inform others about the Joy of Giving. This year Chand and Angie made the decision to hand the Christmas Lights into the carer of Willmar Fests and they have brought the Celebrate the Light of the World Christmas Light Display to Robbins Island in Willmar for everyone to see.
