A Blue Christmas Service is on that is held on or near the Winter Solstice.
The Mesquite United Methodist Church will gather on Thursday, December 20 at 6:00 p.m. for a special worship service that acknowledges Christmas with a reverent and personal approach to the celebration of Christ’s birth.
Those who do not feel the exuberance of the season appreciate the value in a Blue Christmas. Experiences of loss, depression, or painful memories of past holidays can be softened in a Blue Christmas service.
Prayer, scripture, and music reminds us that God’s presence is for those who mourn and those who struggle, and that God’s word comes to shine a light into our darkness. No need to dread the holidays.
