For many of us, Christmas time is bittersweet. While everyone else seems to be happy, we are remembering and grieving both persons and events that had been a part of our lives in the past, but that are now changed or gone.
How do we celebrate Christmas with heavy hearts? St. John's is offering a quiet, meditative, special worship service that makes time for remembering, sharing our hurting places with God, and preparing our hearts for the coming of Christ.Join the group at St. John's Lutheran Church, 1 East Abbott St., Lansford, today at 7 p.m., for a time of special music, scripture, silent reflection, healing prayer, and Holy Communion.Also, the Christmas schedule for St. John's Lutheran, 1 East Abbott Street, Lansford, is December 24, Christmas Eve, at 6:00 p.m.; Christmas Day at 10:30 a.m.
