Simple Massing Priest has posted a Blue Christmas liturgy used for Christmas '08, together with reflections on how the service went. The idea is a Christmas service for those who find that time of year difficult or depressing, and who seek an act of worship which isn't resolutely upbeat and jolly.
I know it's far too early for Christmas, but if this idea does spark anyone off, at least you've got time to plan it in!
I've done them at St. Margaret's for the past nine years, and always find them worthwhile.
ReplyDeleteWe're doing a 'Living With Loss' service on the evening of Remembrance Sunday for people who have been bereaved over the last year. But Christmas is a good idea for that time of year too...
