On Sunday, December 21, 2025, we will open its doors for anyone feeling a special need for comfort during the holiday season. The sanctuary at 270 Main Street will be open starting at 1 PM, and there will be a “Blue Christmas” service at 7 PM.
Rev. David Czeisel, St. Paul’s Pastor, underscored that the “Blue Christmas” ministry is open to all, not only members of St. Paul’s, and she asks anyone who knows someone who might benefit to encourage him or her to attend. Those who come can spend time in quiet reflection, listen to music, light candles in remembrance loved ones, or talk with volunteers who will be on hand to lend an ear.
Churches began offering Blue Christmas services are traditionally held late in the Advent season to correspond to the longest night of the year.
