Mercy Table’s 4th Annual Christmas Holiday Market returns to Anderson, Indiana, on Friday, December 12, and Saturday, December 13, 2025, from 10AM to 4PM. It is hosted at Mercy Road Church Anderson, 2625 Lindberg Rd. This festive two-day event is a celebration of community, creativity, and generosity, with proceeds directly supporting Mercy Table’s Wrapped in Mercy Toy Drive the following weekend, which ensures local children receive Christmas gifts.
Guests can expect a cheerful and welcoming holiday atmosphere filled with local vendors offering handcrafted goods, seasonal treats, and one-of-a-kind gifts for all ages. Santa Claus will be on-site for photos with children, and for added convenience, a gift-wrapping station will be available for a small fee. There will also be live entertainment. This market is more than a shopping experience, it’s a meaningful way to give back. Every person in attendance helps bring joy to children, making this market a place where the Spirit of Christmas truly comes to life.
