For many people the approaching holidays are not a joyous time. As families gather, the pain of lost family and friends is felt more sharply. Other losses of relationships, health, or jobs cloud our minds. For some people it is the most depressing time of year. With that in mind, we will gather on The Longest Night to embrace and claim the darkness that is present both in the world and in our own lives. We also know that we gather to be illumined by the light of Christ this Christmas season. Please join us on December 21 at 5:45.
