About the event
Blue Christmas Prayer Service
Wednesday, December 18, 7pm
Sanctuary and on Zoom
The Advent and Christmas season can be a painful time for some. It may be the first Christmas without a loved one, or it may be a time that has always been difficult.
The constant refrain on the radio and television, in shopping malls and churches, about the happiness of the season, about getting together with family and friends, reminds many people of what they have lost, or perhaps never had. The anguish of broken relationships, the insecurity of unemployment, the weariness of ill health, the pain of isolation- all these can make us feel very alone in the midst of celebrating and spending.
During the Blue Christmas Prayer Service, we welcome the space and time to acknowledge our sadness and concern. On that night, we remember that we are not alone.
