Winter Solstice “Blue Christmas”—‘Drop In’ Service of Hope Saturday, December 21

Sanctuary open from 2:00-4:00pm

Brief Communal Service of Blessing and Hope at 3:30

Hillcrest Congregational Church, United Church of Christ 404 Gregory Lane, Pleasant Hill

- This is an opportunity to take a break from the holiday busyness—an

opportunity to reflect quietly on the Christmas message of peace, love, joy, and hope.

- For those who are not feeling 'the spirit' this year for any number of

reasons, this service can be a source of comfort. Stop by any time stay as long as you like. During that time, quiet music will be played and occasional readings will be given. At the end of each hour, a short prayer time will be offered to those who wish to participate. At 3:30, there will a brief service of blessing and hope (anointing with oil available for those who wish).
