Longest Night Service

The Longest Night Service is a time to recognize that Christmas can be a bittersweet time of the year. Events take place at this time of the year that simply make celebration impossible — illness, sudden death of a loved one, or the burden of caring for a loved one, the loss of a job, oppressive financial difficulties, strained family relations, divorce or separation. For some people, Christmas may simply bring up memories of a difficult and troubled past. On this longest darkest night, we come together to realize that we are not alone, and we share God's presence during this season.
