Winter Solstice Prayer Service at The Greensboro Episcopal Church of the Redeemer
All are welcome to join the Episcopal Church of The Redeemer in Greensboro on
Thursday, December 21 st at 12 Noon for the second annual Blue Christmas Prayer
Service. December 21 st marks the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year.
For many in our community, the Christmas season – and the time leading up to it –
are far from joyful. People within and beyond the community have experienced
deep losses that are poignantly felt at this time of year as loved ones are “supposed
to gather together and celebrate the holidays.” Others who live with chronic
depression often find that symptoms increase during the shorter days of December.
With this in mind, the Episcopal Church of The Redeemer in downtown
Greensboro is hosting its second Blue Christmas Prayer Service. A participant
from last year said, “I left with a little less heaviness and a lot more hope.” Last
year, the quiet atmosphere offered space for tears and deep thoughts; many left
with a renewed sense of peace for the holiday season. This service will again be a
safe place for those who wish to participate to bring their grief, depression, or loss,
and offer them to a loving God who desires wholeness, healing and peace for all.
The simple service includes silence, prayers, readings, gentle music, candlelight
and warm blankets for attendees who may participate at any level they feel
comfortable. The service will honor and give expression to sadness and point to
hope for the “lightening” of the days. All are welcome to this free event. For more
information, please call Redeemer at (706) 453-7171.
