    New Zealand Journalist Learns About #LightTheWorld Christmas Initiative

    'If a community links arms and serves together we can all make a difference even though our individual efforts might be small.'

    Zizi Sparks, a New Zealand journalist writing for Fairfax Media, discovered this week that the #LightTheWorld Christmas initiative is not just for Mormons.

    "A religious group is encouraging the general public to light the world in 25 ways, over 25 days this December," Sparks wrote.

    She continued: "The Light the World project is run by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and aims to inspire participants to do an act of service every day in December leading up to Christmas.

    "Each day has a scripture passage related to it.

    "But church member Landon Jones said the initiative wasn't just for Mormons."
