Blue Christmas Service

During the Advent and Christmas season we are often told to turn our hearts to thoughts of peace, joy, love, and hope, but for many the holidays can be a source of stress and grief.  The season can remind us of loved ones who are no longer with us, broken expectations, a sense of despair, and often leave us wondering if joy will ever return.  And that’s okay.  It is okay to enter the season of Advent and Christmas with pain rather than joy in your heart.  That’s the whole point of having a Blue Christmas worship service, a time and space in worship where we can come together as a community and acknowledge each other’s pain.  This will be a time of prayer and reflection as we offer our fears and pain to God.

Join us in the Chapel at 7 PM on December 21.
