Every Advent, we light candles, sing carols, and pray for Christ’s coming because we believe God entered a frightened world to bring good news. We hold onto hope because we believe that Christ did come—that’s the promise of the season. Our hope is not flimsy or fleeting. It’s gritty, resilient, and can endure—no matter what we fear or face.

This season, let us insist on hope and trust that good news is greater than fear

Longest Night: Keeping Vigil for Hope December 21, 4p

Friends, though Christmas is a time of joy and hope, we also recognize that fear and grief are often present too, weighing on us like a heavy fog. Tonight we will light candles together and keep vigil, inviting God to join us no matter what emotions are present too.
