Long Night Advent Service
December 18, 2019 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
A Long Night Advent Service, held on or near the longest night of the year, is designed for those who find Christmas a difficult season. We hear constantly about the happiness of the season and about getting together with family and friends. Yet grief, broken relationships, unemployment, illness, pain, and isolation can make us feel very alone in the midst of the celebrating. This special service, which will include music, prayers, and readings, is to help us reflect on God as Emmanuel, “God-with-us”, who comes to us in times of struggle and reminds us of the true preciousness of the gift of Emmanuel and how we can gain comfort by knowing that we are never truly alone.
