Planning on driving around to look at lights? Tonight is the perfect opportunity as it is Luminaria Night! An event that started in Bethlehem, it has grown to encompass many area neighborhoods (and continues to grow with support of area residents). Basically, white waxed bags with sand and a tea light are placed along the road, lining the streets with pathways of light. It is a beautiful sight to behold! Buying the luminary kits benefits New Bethany Ministries, which provides housing and support to the homeless as well as those who are physically and mentally disabled. The event starts at dusk!
Here is a list of participating neighborhoods (please note that you may participate regardless of where you live, however!): http://www.newbethanyministries.org/Luminaria-areas-2014.html
*Please note that I have also seen the luminaries in Machungie, even though that neighborhood isn't listed...
