FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
Longest Night/Blue Christmas Service
December 21
7 p.m.
Union Chapel at First
Presbyterian Church
The Christmas season is often marked by expressions
of joy, excitement, and happiness. It’s a time for family to gather
and for churches to worship pointing to the hope that is found in
the coming of the Christ child. However, this time of joy and
expectation can often overshadow the pain and hurt many experience
during this season, when the world's merriment puts their grief and
sorrow in stark relief.
Traditionally centered on the Winter Solstice [the longest night of
the year] our service will be held on Thursday, December 21, at 7
p.m. in Union Chapel at First Presbyterian Church. This service will
provide time and space, through song and readings from Scripture,
for God’s people to reflect on the pain this time of the year can
invoke, while also remembering that God is there, and that light
will soon return.
