Blue Christmas – Tonight, December 12 at 7 PM

Led by Rev. Steven Protzman and Camille Fauser, Worship Associate

For some of us, this season is difficult.  It may be a painful reminder of loved ones who are no longer present to celebrate the holidays, there may be other losses or struggles we are facing, or the long dark nights may be a challenge.  “Blue Christmas” will be a meditative service that will provide a space for grief and loss, for reflection and remembering, and for honoring the many different feelings we have this time of year.

A Vigil of Lament, Healing and Hope

Monday, October 15, 2018  at 7 pm

Led by Rev. Steven Protzman

The SCOTUS hearings, the divisiveness so evident in our politics and in our country right now, and the treatment of survivors of sexual violence have made the last few weeks difficult for all of us and especially painful for survivors of sexual violence.  We want to offer an opportunity for a safe space to express your thoughts and feelings, to participate in a ritual of healing, and to hear words of hope to sustain us in the times to come. 
Everyone is welcome to attend.  Childcare will be provided — no RSVP needed.
