It ends with the waving of glow sticks.

Longest Night Service at 7 pm

On the Longest Night of the year, on the winter solstice, December 21 at 7pm, we will gather in the sanctuary for a special worship service to offer comfort and hope and space for those who are grieving, struggling or feeling lonely during the holiday season. In the darkest part of the winter, we are providing space for reflection, prayer, and the opportunity to just be present to all the feelings this season brings up. Our Grace Notes choir will be providing special music throughout the service! Please join us and invite a friend!
