Blue Christmas Service

A gentle approach to Christmas for those who have difficulty in this holiday season or are in need of healing..

Wednesday. December 18th
7:00 PM

This year's Blue Christmas Service will include prayers and anointing for healing.
Come to the altar with the cares of your own heart or on behalf of others, and receive the fragrant blessing of healing using the oils brought to Jesus' manger by early visitors. Frankincense and myrrh were brought by the 'visitors from the East' in acknowledgement that Jesus is the source of all healing, and we continue to use them for anointing today.
