Longest Night Service December 21, 2012

Christmas can be a painful time for some. The constant refrain on the radio and television, in shopping malls and churches, about the happiness of the season, about getting together with family and friends, reminds many people of what they have lost or have never had. We need the space and time to acknowledge our sadness and concern; we need to know that we are not alone.

For these reasons, Brooklyn United Methodist Church, 7200 Brooklyn Blvd. Brooklyn Center Minnesota 55429 offers a special "Longest Night" service on Friday, December 21, 2012 at 6:00pm.

Come out, and join with us in sharing and hearing prayers, scripture, and music that acknowledge that God’s presence is for those who mourn, for those who struggle - and that God’s Word comes to shine light into our darkness. Everyone, regardless of church background (or lack of it) is welcome. The short service will be followed by a brief time for light refreshments and fellowship.
