6 6 Merry Christmas From your friends and family at BLUE CHRISTMAS WORSHIP DECEMBER 21 Blue Christmas? Yes, blue as in the blues or I am feeling blue. Not everyone feels the same excitement about the Christmas holidays. Too often we overlook those who are dealing with the death of a loved one, broken relationships, sickness or other causes of anxiety. The longest night of the year (the Winter Solstice) occurs on December 21 this year. If you, or someone you know, is feeling blue, there is a service of reflection planned for Thursday, December 21 at 6 pm in Asbury Hall (the MAC). We hope this service will be meaningful for anyone searching for healing and hope. Traditional Christmas Eve Candlelight Services 5:30 & 7:00 pm The 5:30 service will have a family emphasis with a time for children. Both services include candle lighting, Holy Communion, and singing of Silent Night. 104 S. Miller St. Decatur MAY YOUR HOLIDAYS BE MERRY & BRIGHT!
