Join us as we gather together, from locations near and far to hear scriptures which remind us of the unhappy times in our ancestor's past. We also are given permission to acknowledge that sometimes (especially during the holiday season) "nobody knows the troubles we've seen". The holiday season is a sad time for many!
Our "Blue Christmas" Service will be held on Friday, December 17, 2010 @ 7 p.m, 6671 Germantown Avenue, Philadelphia Pa. We are invited to gather and share (or not) our stories around the "Table of Tears"; candles are lit and we remember loved ones who have died, lost relationships, hardships and sadness. We will be blessed with a gift of dance and will learn that we can lean on one another and hold one another up and walk with one another on this journey. But most of all, we will remember the One who knew true grief and sadness and betrayal and who gave his life, so that we may walk in His Way of love and forgiveness and mercy; who gave his life, so that we may come to believe in him and have the promise of eternal life. We will celebrate the evening with Holy Communion... and if your faith tradition does not partake of bread and wine, you are welcome nevertheless to partake in the fellowship of the evening. We pray you will join us ♥ for more information: 215-848-0199 |
