Blue Christmas Service
December 19 | 7 pm
December 19 | 7 pm
Christ the King will offer its annual Blue Christmas service this year on Monday, December 19, 2022, beginning at 7 pm in the sanctuary. This contemplative worship service is filled with quiet prayer, comforting holiday music, candle lighting, and a reflection by Pastor Brad.
The Blue Christmas service is a special time set aside for our gathered community of faith to grieve our losses and release those things we once hoped and prayed for, but perhaps did not receive.
If you find yourself overwhelmed and exhausted by the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, come and soothe your spirit by engaging together in God’s gift of holy lament.
