See Light the World images projected in London

Building next to London Eye becomes canvas for Nativity scenes; Sister Kristin M. Yee joins spectators to launch Light the World in U.K.

Residents of London, England, saw large Light the World images projected at County Hall next to the London Eye as the Light the World initiative launched in the United Kingdom this week.

Sister Kristin M. Yee, second counselor in the Relief Society general presidency, joined the spectators in London to see the Light the World projection.

“I’m grateful to be here in London as we launch Light the World and watch the beautiful projections on London’s County Hall,” Sister Yee told the Church’s U.K. Newsroom. “When we come together to bless others as the Savior would, we will be blessed to do much more than we could on our own. Together, let us ‘Light the World’ this season by bringing the Savior’s love, light and relief to those around us through simple acts of service and by seeking inspired ways to improve the well-being of women and children.”

Each Christmas season, the Church invites everyone to light the world through service to others and by spreading joy, kindness and hope.

Elder Alan T. Phillips, General Authority Seventy and second counselor in the Europe North Area presidency, said, “We’re excited to launch the Light the World season of service here in Europe. This initiative offers a powerful way for individuals and communities to reach out and make a difference. As we come together in this season of giving, we invite everyone to participate and experience the joy that comes from lifting those in need and spreading light in impactful ways.”

Light the World Machines are also in the U.K. at two major shopping centers in Birmingham and London. Called Giving Machines in the U.S. and other locations, the Light the World Machines in the U.K. will allow residents there to donate to a local or global charitable organization and thus bless the lives of people in need.
