"A Christmas List of Blessings is a heartfelt film about the miracles that happen when people come together for the greater good, and it is a powerful reminder of why we celebrate the season," said Bill Abbott, President & CEO, Great American Media.

NEW YORK, July 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Great American Media announced production is underway on A Christmas List of Blessings, an Original Movie starring Shae Robins (Destined At Christmas, Destined At Christmas: Once More, Love In Aruba) and Christopher Russell ("When Hope Calls," Peppermint And Postcards, A Vintage Christmas), which will premiere as part of Great American Christmas 2025.

Great American Christmas Year 5 Original Movie Premieres will be available to stream on Great American Pure Flix, airing on Great American Family, and a commercial-free option on GFam+, the company's 24/7 live channel feed. In its first five years, Great American Christmas has produced one of the most coveted Original Christmas movie libraries in entertainment. Great American Christmas is faith, family, love, hope, and joy. Christmas as it is meant to be.

"A Christmas List of Blessings is a heartfelt film about the miracles that happen when people come together for the greater good, and it is a powerful reminder of why we celebrate the season," said Bill Abbott, President & CEO, Great American Media. "Rooted in faith, family, and community, the film exemplifies what makes Great American Christmas stand apart from other holiday movie events. Great American Christmas original films reflect the true meaning of the season with heart, purpose, and authenticity," Abbott concluded.

In A Christmas List of Blessings, Natalie (Robins), a children's book illustrator struggling with creative burnout, finds unexpected inspiration when she comes across a little girl's Christmas gift list. Unlike other children's Christmas lists, Caroline writes her list of heartfelt prayers to Jesus, requesting blessings for her family, friends, and community – including one to ask that her recently widowed dad (Russell) will find happiness again. Touched by Caroline's list, Natalie begins to secretly fulfill each blessing. In turn, she is inspired to create a new character, Adeline the Angel, to illustrate the ways Jesus quietly works through everyday people to answer prayers with love and grace.

A Christmas List of Blessings is executive produced by Samantha Degagne and William Tom Fielek. Produced by Anthony Fankhauser. A Christmas List of Blessings is directed by Nicholad Humphries from an Original Screenplay by Ansley Gordon.
