Longest Night Service at Vista Grande Villa
The Advent and Christmas seasons bring with them a festive mood and much general merriment – but not for all. Many among us are struggling with losses in our lives, sometimes the death of a beloved family member, or maybe the loss of a job, the loss of a home, or fading health. Perhaps it is anxiety and isolation caused by the circumstances of the past year. Any of these may make our preparation for the coming of Christ more subdued and make us feel alone in this season of joy.
The Longest Night Service will be held at 6:00 p.m. on Sunday, December 22, at the Grande Room at Vista Grande Villa. Rev. Brad Luck and Rev. Julie Nygaard will lead us in a time of Scripture, prayer, and song that will be a time for us to acknowledge our losses and disappointments. It will be a time to affirm that, in the midst of our struggles, Christ’s light will shine in our darkness, light that will bring the joy of Christ quietly to our hearts.
If the remembrance of loss makes this season difficult for you, come to the Longest Night Service to join others in remembering that to a world living in darkness, Christ brought hope and healing and that Christ’s light shines today into the dark times of our lives with that same hope and healing. Please join us for this special worship service.
