BLUE CHRISTMAS

Sunday December 22nd @ 3pm

Sometimes the comfort and joy of the Christmas season also comes with grief, loneliness, and/or fatigue. Blue Christmas offers a pause from the busyness and pressures of Christmas to simply be with God Immanuel and to be met by His unfailing love. Jen Eisenberg leads this in the sanctuary at 3pm!
