![]() Blue Service Invitation: Our Deacon Postulant Tamara Noel has a special invitation for you. This year, the season of Advent begins on December 1st and marks a sacred time of anticipation and preparation for the celebration of Christ's birth. For many, this season begins an exciting time of joy but can also evoke sadness and a deep sense of loss, as cherished memories weigh heavily upon our hearts, making it a time of emotional struggle amidst all the festive cheer. On Wednesday, December 11th at 5 pm, I invite you to join us for a special service in the sanctuary, for those who mourn during this Advent season. This quiet and gentle service will provide a sacred space of comfort and reflection whether you are mourning a loved one, a relationship, a pet, or even a dream. Starting December 1st, you are invited to bring any keepsakes that symbolize and honor your unique story of loss and grief. These keepsakes will be collected and stored at the church and then placed on a special altar for the evening service. You are welcome to bring mementos on the evening of the service as well. So join us on Wednesday, Dec 11th at 5:00 pm, for a spiritual time of reflection and renewal as we tend to our souls together and release our sorrow and hope to God, trusting that God’s light shines even in our darkest moments.
