Christmas Carolers
On Saturday, December 23rd, ten members of our congregation sang Christmas carols for the community. The group performed for a homebound church member and six other locations, including a special stop to Ruth's Mom. The visits consisted of Elderwood Nursing Facility, Elderwood Assisted Living, Elizabeth Street Apts., Page Manor, Sayre Health Care Center, and Sayre Health Care Center Assisted Living.
The carolers were joined in the singing by the residents. It brought much joy to all. The carolers were Jim Parks with his guitar (coordinator for this event), Marie Parks, Ruth Houser, Joanne Laurer, Dave & Kathy Williams, Scott Chaffee, Sherry Warner, Averi Grohol, and Nancy Riley. We returned to the Fellowship Hall for soup, pizza, hot chocolate and cookies. We commented that we benefited from the experience as much as the receivers! ~Jim Parks
At Home Worship Service
Because the holidays are cheerful and joyous, we often overlook those who are grieving, sad, or who have experienced losses. If you are feeling less than merry and bright this Advent and Christmas season, this service is for you.
You may recognize this as the same Blue Christmas service from 2022. So many folks found this service meaningful that we decided to share it again in 2023.
Feel free to go at your own pace. Pause the service if you need to. Share it with family members and others who are sad this time of year. You are not alone. God is with you as you grieve.
