(Atlantic, IA) – The Atlantic Area Chamber of Commerce is now accepting nominations for the 2025 Angel(s) of Christmas, sponsored by Cass Health. The Angel of Christmas is a tradition in Atlantic, recognizing and thanking area residents and organizations who symbolize the true meaning of the season. Angels exemplify the true holiday spirit all year long, and put others first, spreading generosity and sharing the holiday spirit with everyone they meet.

“The heart of the holidays shines brightest through everyday acts of kindness. Honoring those who quietly lift others up reminds us that the spirit of Christmas isn’t a season; it’s a way of living,” Kelsey Beschorner, Executive Director at the Atlantic Area Chamber of Commerce said.

Past Angels of Christmas titles have been awarded to: Mary-Ann Mooreman, Steve Livengood, Sheri Lecbeck, Pastor Leon Hodges, Bob Boots, Devin Hogue, Marcia Weis, Gary & Lucy Newton, Wickman Chemical, Steve Andersen, Tom McLaren, and the Atlantic Food Panty volunteers Ken Burkhart and Sharon Sandhorst.

Please nominate the Christmas Angel you know to the Atlantic Area Chamber of Commerce by November 29th. Nominate by submitting comments about this person to the Atlantic Area Chamber of Commerce or email chamber@atlanticiowa.com. You can find a nomination form on www.atlanticiowa.com/christmas-in-atlantic.
