The Christmas presents will then be distributed during the celebration at the City Commission's premises on Christmas Eve. The bus stopped in Lindsdal, Rinkabyholm, Berga center and Stortorget. With the bus were both Santa and a choir like the lake Christmas carols.

"This is a world premiere for us in Kalmar City Mission," says Susanne Lundström, director of the City Mission in Kalmar.

Mulled wine and gingerbread

The bus has just stopped in Lindsdal and from it a whole chorus of Christmas songs is flowing, while at the same time it is offered mulled wine and gingerbread.

To Lindsdal there have been people who bring along jokes that the City Mission will later distribute to others.

Saga Juliusson is one of those who brought a package and gave it to the site.

- I'm here to give packages to those who may not have that much money, she says.

Home knit scarves

Birgitta Ohlsson has a whole bag of packages in her hand, sweets, chocolates and home-made scarves she has brought.

- We wanted to test something new and said, we fix with a Christmas gift bus and drive around and meet people where they are, says Susanne Lundström, who is very satisfied after the bus's first stop.
