Blue Christmas Worship Service @ 6PM
Not everyone experiences this season with joyful anticipation. Many are dealing with the death of a loved one, facing life after divorce or separation, coping with the loss of a job, living with cancer or some other disease that puts a question mark over the future, and a number of other human situations make parties and joviality painful for many people in our congregations and communities. Join us for this simple but profound worship service at 6PM in the Building #1 Fellowship Hall.
