December 3rd 2019 – Women’s Candlelight Service

Christmas can be a painful time for some. It may be a time of change in your life; it may be the first Christmas without a beloved family member; it may be a time that has always been difficult.

The constant refrain on the radio and television, in shopping malls and churches, about the happiness of the season and getting together with family and friends, reminds many people of what they have lost or have never had. Sometimes we feel very alone in the midst of the celebrating. We need the space and time to acknowledge and accept where we are at this time of year – we need to know that we are not alone.

Come out, and join with us in sharing and hearing prayers, scripture, stories and music that acknowledge that God’s presence is for those who struggle, for those who mourn, for those who are searching – and that God’s Word comes to shine light into our darkness.

All women of all ages or church backgrounds are welcome. A time of fellowship and refreshments will follow the service.
