Blue Christmas 2025

The Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ and Dustin’s Place is hosting a Blue Christmas Service on Tuesday, December 9^th at 5pm ET. This service is a gentle and contemplative time to be together and there will be refreshments afterward.

The holidays can be a difficult time for some in our community. Some come because they are mourning the death of a loved one. Some are far from home. Some suffer from illness, addiction, or estrangement. Some are lonely, struggling financially, or in conflict with another. Some hurt because of the great pain, need, and violence in our nation and world. The reasons for coming are many. This is a night to hold our grief collectively.
