We are approaching the winter solstice, which means we in the northern hemisphere are experiencing the longest period of darkness of the year. We are reminded that the holiday season is not always easy for everyone, and sometimes feelings of loneliness, and memories of loved ones we see no longer, rise within us. St. Martin's will again offer a service of compassion and community for those for whom this season may be difficult or overwhelming on the night before the solstice this year-- on December 20 at 7 pm. On this night, we mindfully hold the darkness and the blues in tension with the Christmas joy. Join us for a gentle, contemplative service of compassion and gathering light. We will listen to beautiful music, light candles, share memories, hear beautiful readings of poetry and comfort, and engagement in prayer, community, and quiet. In all things, we remember that we are not alone, and that we see light most vividly in the darkness.
A light lunch will be served. All are welcome; RSVP ecitymission@sbcglobal.net by Thursday, Dec. 15 to help us plan for lunch – BUT we’ll plan for extra so last-minute guests are welcome!
The party takes place at Emmanuel Church, 9 South Bompart Avenue, Webster Groves 63119 (Thank you, Emmanuel!) Parking will be available on Emmanuel’s lot, accessible from Lockwood Ave. or South Bompart Ave.
It’s the first time we’re hosting this fun event since 2019, and we can’t wait to see everyone!
