March 31, 1971 — August 20, 2024
Bryan Wayne Christmas traveled to his eternal home on Tuesday, August 20th, 2024. Services will be at 2:00 P.M. on Saturday, August 24, 2024 at University Church of Christ in Canyon with Steve McLean and Kirk Hayes officiating. Private burial will be in Dreamland Cemetery.

Bryan was born on March 31, 1971 to Gene and Janice Christmas in Fresno, CA. Bryan was a minister after God's own heart and spent the majority of his adult life preaching the Word to congregations in California, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Louisiana and Texas. In his early career he served as a missionary to India and was an active board member of the India Mission Fund.
In 2000, Bryan married the love of his life, Anita Britton. They served together in the Lord's work their entire marriage. God blessed them with four beautiful daughters, Cali, Hailey, Deanna, and Danielle, and Bryan's mini-me son, Trevor. Bryan's children were the most important part of his life, and he was an amazing father to them all, including the bonus kids he loved while fostering.
Bryan and his family moved to Canyon, TX in the summer of 2016 where he started ministering at Canyon Hills Church of Christ. He also started working for Happy State Bank in August of 2016, and as a staff trainer knew the majority of the people who worked at the bank. Bryan touched thousands of lives and was a shining light for Jesus.
Bryan is survived by his wife, Anita; his five children, Cali, Hailey, Deanna, Danielle and Trevor; his parents, Gene and Janice Christmas of Canyon, TX; his brothers, Paul Christmas and wife, Kim of Tulare, CA, Jeff Christmas and wife, Christy of Bryant, AR, and Darin Christmas and wife, Jessica of Tulare, CA. He also leaves a host of nieces, nephews, "out-laws" and friends behind to celebrate his new life with his Lord.
In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorials be to Christian Relief Fund, 1501 SW 58th Ave, Amarillo, TX 79110 or Amarillo Angels, 112 SW 8th Ave STE 610, Amarillo, TX 79101.
The family also requests everyone attending the service dress in blue.
