 STUDIO CITY, CA – November, 18th 2019 – Hallmark Channel continues the “When Calls the Heart” Christmas tradition with “When Calls the Heart: Home for Christmas,” a special, two-hour Christmas event premiering Wednesday, December 25 (8 p.m. ET/PT), on Hallmark Channel.  Erin Krakow (“Marrying Father Christmas”), Jack Wagner (“The Wedding March”), Kevin McGarry (“Christmas Scavenger Hunt”), Chris McNally (“A Winter Princess”), Pascale Hutton (“My One and Only”), Kavan Smith (“Love on the Menu”) and Paul Greene (“Christmas in Evergreen: Tidings of Joy”) star in this highly anticipated movie, which is part of the network’s beloved, number one-rated programming event, “Countdown to Christmas,” celebrating its 10th anniversary this year.  Hallmark Channel is historically the #1 television network in all of Q4. As Christmas approaches in Hope Valley, Elizabeth (Krakow) prepares for Little Jack’s first Christmas and birthday, surrounded by her closest friends.  Despite the friends that want to give Baby Jack a special Christmas, she misses Jack more than ever.  Nathan (McGarry) receives a prestigious job offer in Union City but weighs the promotion against the downside of leaving Elizabeth and taking his niece away from Hope Valley.  Lucas (McNally) holds a Christmas festival to bring some of his family’s traditions to Hope Valley…and to impress Elizabeth.  Carson (Greene) and Faith (Andrea Brooks) face obstacles when they try to reconnect for Christmas, which leads Carson (Greene) to a stranger in need of his help.  Meanwhile, Rosemary (Hutton) and Lee (Smith) search for the perfect gift for Little Jack, while Bill (Wagner) turns Hope Valley upside looking for a special gift that he misplaced. “When Calls the Heart: Home for Christmas” is produced by All Canadian Entertainment.
