A NEW VENTURE FOR US IN ROYSTON IS OUR "BLUE CHRISTMAS" SERVICE on 22nd December at 6.30pm, almost the longest night of the year. In contrast to the celebration atmosphere of most Christmas events, this is a quiet, reflective service which provides an opportunity for the difficulties of life to be acknowledged, a service of comfort and light, for when pain seems the only gift under the tree. Some are far from home, 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. We gather in the midst of that hurt to remember God is good. God is strong. God is near. We are not alone, and we have every reason to hold on to hope. Please speak to Reg if you would like to know more, or simply turn up.
