December 21 6pm The Longest Night Worship

This will be 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 start relief. December 21st is the winter solstice, or longest night of the year. Come to worship and allow God to acknowledge your grief during this season.
