SUMMARY:Service of Comfort & Light
DESCRIPTION:The season of Advent is a time of excitement\, anticipation\, peace\, and joy. However\, many people find that the holiday season can be filled with anything but\, especially due to the loss of a loved one or other difficult circumstances. \nIf you relate to this feeling\, we invite you to join us in the Chapel for a contemplative service of tender hope and abiding love. The evening will include candle lighting and an opportunity to pray with one of our pastors. \n\n“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled\, and do not let them be afraid.” \nJohn 14:27 (NRSVUE)
