BLUE CHRISTMAS

Friday, December 21
7 p.m.
St. Margaret's and San Francisco de Asis
Miami Lakes

For those who are grieving-or anticipating--the loss of a loved one, suffering from serious illness or addiction, or dealing with any family crisis, a joyous Christmas celebration may be only a painful reminder of their feelings of sadness and isolation. The Blue Christmas service will feature quiet hymns for Advent and Christmas and the lighting of candles with prayers for the losses and anxieties that worshipers are bearing. There will also be a Eucharist, with intention for healing and comfort for all present and their families. Priest-in-charge, Fr. Tim Rogers says that the Blue Christmas Service is a "gift to the community," intended to reassure those who are grieving that the birth of Jesus means God is present with us in all of our human pain and shares our suffering.
