About Santa Pastor Wendell
Santa Pastor Wendell has always marveled at how children see the world—simple, full of wonder, and guided by the Golden Rule – rather than conflictual opinions about politics or self-centered material wealth. Being Santa allows him to enter their enchanting world and experience their joy.
Originally from the Midwest and now a proud Texan, he transitioned from a 22-year engineering career to ministry, driven by his deep desire to care for and connect with all people. As a retired pastor and professional Santa, he is able to connect both the secular and Christian worlds. While most of his events are secular, he is passionate about sharing the traditional message of Christmas and the birth of our Savior, Jesus.
Since he began his Santa journey in late 2019, he has dedicated himself to perfecting his craft through extensive training and professional development. He has attended several prestigious Santa schools and conferences, learning from seasoned Santas who regularly perform at iconic events like the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and Hallmark movies. Highlights of his training include participating in the International Santa Celebration in Atlanta, where he studied with over 600 other Santas from around the globe, the School of Santas® in Branson, MO, and The International University of Santa Claus® online training during the 2020 pandemic and several annual local Lone Star Santas® conferences. His dedication to authenticity shows in his real beard, and vibrant wardrobe, representing an investment of over $2,000. This extensive training and attention to high-quality attire ensures that every visit is as magical and genuine as possible.
