They may look like Santa, but their inspiration comes straight from St. Nicholas himself. Beneath the beard and bells is a calling rooted in love, service, and faith. In this heartfelt conversation, two men reveal how the red suit opens doors to faith, healing, and hope — sometimes when it’s needed most. These two St. Nicks talk about why the magic of Christmas isn’t found in presents, but in presence...especially for children who just need to feel seen. This festive finale for 2025 is a reminder that Christmas joy multiplies when it’s shared. It’s Christmas, told from behind the beard! 🎅
