Crews Putting Up More Than 2 Million Lights At Rhema

Rhema has been wowing us with its Christmas light display since 1982.

What began with 60,000 lights has grown a lot over the past three decades.

Right now, crews are putting the last of the more than two million lights up across the bible college campus.

A 15-man crew began setting everything up at the end of August; but the man who oversees the project, Pete Bartolazzi, said all the hard work pays off when people start showing.

"Especially when you see little kids get excited and their eyes light up and they jump around in excitement of what they see. That really makes the whole thing worthwhile," Bartolazzi said.

Rhema does not charge for its light show.

More than 200,000 people are expected to come from all over Oklahoma and surrounding states to check it out.
