    From Deb Will's site:

    << What is the Candlelight Processional?
    A Disney tradition now in its 37th year (2007), the Candlelight Processional is a moving presentation of the Christmas story in readings by a celebrity narrator and music by a Mass choir and 50-piece orchestra.
    Where and when does it take place?
    This event takes place in the America Gardens Theatre in World Showcase in Epcot. It is an outdoor (uncovered, not climate controlled) setting and is not cancelled due to inclement weather. It is recommended you dress accordingly.
    It begins November 23 and runs every evening until December 30. Shows are approximately 40 minutes. Each evening there are three shows -- 5:00pm, 6:45pm, 8:15pm>>

    I don't think it would be at all necessary to be a Christian to enjoy the show. On the other hand, if you are actively opposed to Christian beliefs it probably wouldn't be for you.

    Also make sure you catch a set from the Voices of Liberty, the a capella group that performs in the American pavilion. They do traditional Christmas songs in their wonderfully rich arrangements. And the Lights of Winter, a huge archway that stretches over the walkway between Futureworld and the World Showcase, is synced with the big fountain in Futureworld. Find a spot somewhere under the arch, watch in the direction of the fountain, and enjoy!

    I'll be there this Chrismas for the first time in a couple years, and I've got the Christmas chills on a hot Texas afternoon!
