The holidays officially kicked off in Downtown Fort Worth with the 35th annual XTO Energy Parade of Lights and FUMCFW was part of the festivities! The City of Fort Worth used three church parking lots for staging of the event, while a group of volunteers who attend The Gathering were on hand to welcome folks to Downtown, as well as offer hot beverages and free parking in the remaining church lot as a way to allow people to experience a bit of grace this holiday season.
