From 6–8 p.m. on Dec. 6 and 13, 2025, Got Faith? Ministry in Jerseyville will host a free visit with Santa where kids can chat with the man himself, make their own toy, and pick out a gift for their caregivers. Jersey County’s official Santa, Steve Pegram, who also oversees Got Faith?, can’t wait to celebrate with the kids.
“They’re going to take a picture with Santa, a selfie with Santa, and then they go to our workshop and they’re going to build toys in the workshop at Got Faith?,” Pegram explained. “It’s a little toy, and you put a quarter in it and it has a hammer, and it’s called a quarter pounder. Then they go down the hallway to a room and pick out two presents for their parents. And then they go in another room and wrap it. And then they take it back and put it underneath the tree.”
Families can also enjoy cookies and treats and more fun throughout the evening. The aim of the event is to spread holiday cheer and help kids prepare for the season.
Pegram, who loves Christmas, looks forward to welcoming local kids to Got Faith? and sharing the experience with them. The free event promises to be a lot of fun for families. To learn more, including how to register, visit the official Facebook event page.
As an organization, Got Faith? Ministry offers a clothes closet, a food pantry, and several other programs for community members. For more information about Got Faith?, including how to receive assistance or how to support them, visit their official website at GotFaithOnline.org.
