The season of Advent is a time of waiting and anticipation, expectation and renewal. It’s a season of preparing for Christ to come into our lives once again. It can feel like everyone is joyful and happy, even if we ourselves don’t feel that way. For many, this is a difficult time of year. Amid the joyful expectations of Advent, there is grief and mourning and sadness, too. Which is why Joy is offering a special service rooted in the Christian tradition known as “Blue Christmas.” For those experiencing grief, pain, mourning, loss, and uncertainty, join us for a time of worship, comfort, and blessing.
