Time: 7:00 pm
Location: SJRUC- Santuary
Description: For many, the festivities of Christmas can be overshadowed by a sense of loss or emptiness.
The quietude of this service offers strength and the reassurance of God’s presence. It reminds us that the birth of the Christ Child speaks to us of new beginnings, and of a promise of peace.
This Christmas message of hope is for all to hear, not only for those who have lost someone through death.
