Gracias Christmas Cantata has comforted the citizens of Las Vegas while they grieved the deadliest massacre in modern history. It has touched the citizens of New Orleans, where they mourn for the lost families from Hurricane Katrina.

The city of Fort Wayne, Indiana has declared September 18th (the date for Gracias Christmas Cantata in Fort Wayne) as Christmas Cantata Day. Moreover, Christmas Cantata Day was also proclaimed in Springfield, MO, Kansas City, Denver, Orlando, Birmingham, San Antonio, and El Paso.
