For so many of us during the holidays, the magnitude of our weary world weighs on our hearts and minds. We wrestle with chronic pain, broken relationships, shattered dreams, fragile faith, and loss of loved ones. Our grief and sorrow feel stark against the backdrop of festivity and joy that everyone else seems to be feeling. We are indeed a weary world.

This year, we are celebrating Christmas with a Blue Christmas service in order to honor our weary hearts and gather together in a space that makes a place for our pain while giving us encouragement, hope, and strength for the days to come. This service is open to anyone who is struggling with grief and pain this holiday season.
