St. Paul's Episcopal Church is delighted to announce a festive event sure to brighten your December:Breakfast with Buddy the Elf, taking place on Saturday, December 6, 2025, with two identical sessions (9:00-10:50 a.m. and 11:10 a.m.-1:00 p.m.).

Move over, ordinary breakfast with Santa - "son of a nutcracker!" - Buddy is coming to town, and he's bringing holiday cheer, syrupy pancakes, and a morning full of magic.

What to Expect - Each session will provide the same festive experience, to keep crowds comfortable and joyful.

Attendees will enjoy:

• Pancakes & eggs (served by BSA Troop #73)
• Arts & crafts for children
• A reading of "Buddy the Elf" by Papa Elf
• Caroling with the Indianapolis Men's Chorus (because the best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear)
• Holiday books for sale (via The Book Fairy)
• Hot chocolate & the world's best cup of coffee
• A meet-and-greet with Buddy - selfies, high-fives

Tickets are available for $10 per person; children ages 3 and under are free, though a ticket is still required for attendance tracking.

Why Attend? - This event combines the wonder of the season - crafts, stories, music, and connection - with a lighthearted and memorable twist. Families are invited to come in festive wear, bring big smiles, and create holiday memories together. Buddy's warm spirit and playful energy make this morning something kids (and adults) will talk about long after pine needles settle.

Registration & Location - Tickets are limited! Purchase and reserve tickets at stpaulsindy.org/buddy.
