December 3 is our Lights of Hope service where we acknowledge that this season can be filled with grief for many, as we all grieve losses of some kind. We offer this service as an opportunity to light a candle for the people and situations we are grieving, and to pray over them.
In this service, we invite you to light a candle in acknowledgment of the burdens you carry. There is nothing magical or mystic about lighting a candle, but rather it is an intentional act of worship to get up, come forward and acknowledge your grief before the congregation so your sisters and brothers in Christ can pray for you.
Additionally, we encourage those worshiping with us online to participate as well. During the Lights of Hope service, you are invited to light a candle at your home as an act of worship.
It is our hope that this service will be a healing time for our congregation. We hope that you'll join us for this special service.
