ALUMNI ADVENT GATHERING Helen, GA

ALUMNI CHRISTMAS GATHERING

Helen, Georgia | Saturday, December 6

Join fellow AMU alumni and friends for a festive day in Helen, Georgia!

We’ll begin the day with 10:00 AM Mass at St. Paul the Apostle Catholic Church, then head into downtown Helen to enjoy the magic of the Christmas season together.

December transforms Helen into a charming Bavarian Christmas village, with more than 50,000 lights illuminating downtown each evening. After Mass, explore the Christkindlmarkt, browse unique shops, enjoy seasonal treats, grab lunch, and take in the sights and sounds of this beloved holiday destination.

The Christkindlmarkt’s second weekend will be in full swing, making this the perfect time to gather with fellow Gyrenes, reconnect with friends, and enjoy a little Christmas cheer.
