Blue Christmas Service

Click on the picture above to access the Blue Christmas service bulletin and recording.

Our service is recorded this year, and we invite you, or you and your friends and family, to make it your own.

This service is a time when we can recognize the "blue" feelings we may have during the Christmas season, acknowledge the reasons for them, and offer these feelings to God. In the midst of the surrounding holiday cheer, some of us mourn a loved one, or feel particularly lonely in our challenges, or struggle with the dark and the cold.

In this service, we share in song, scripture, prayer, candlelight, reflection, and the solace and hope of knowing that we are not alone. We hope that this Blue Christmas service, in this unique holiday season, will be for you a blessing.

Open Your Mind. Learn Mindfulness & Meditation

January 2021

Koru Mindfulness is a 4 session course that will teach you the skill of mindfulness. It will also help you build the habit of using it in your life on a regular basis. We’ve found that folks get a lot more out of Koru if they stick with it from beginning to end, therefore attendance at all 4 sessions is required. So double-check your calendar and then sign up by following this link!

The fee for the app will be covered by a grant. Information to download the app will be sent prior to class. The class max is 8. If we exceed 8 another class will be added so please add your name to the waiting list. Please contact The Rev. Dr. Karen Coleman if you have any questions. I can also alter the time of the class if there is a need for earlier or later in the day.
