Blue Christmas

While December is filled with delight for many, it can be a difficult time for some of us, especially if we’ve said goodbye to beloved hopes, people in our lives, or communities we’ve grown close to. Please come and join us for a time of prayer and comfort as we gather to remember. With the lighting of candles, we will remember those whom we love who are no longer near, or who have died. We will hold space for naming both struggles and gratitudes through listening and prayer. With the strength and comfort of community, we will share in opening our hearts to receive the Great Love of the Holy One, practicing together receiving from God.

This service of prayer and praise will be held at St. Paul’s in Hillsboro. We hope you can be with us for remembering, receiving, and comfort.
