Faith Services

Advent Compline to be offered at Christ Episcopal Church on Sundays (Nov. 30, Dec. 7, and Dec. 21) at 7 PM in the Main Church. Offered amidst candlelight, the candle-lit service will be led by a cantor and include anthems sung by the choir. A short and simple service fitting for the season of Advent and its overarching themes of waiting, preparedness, and expectation.

For many, the holiday season can be a bittersweet time, where moments of joy are shadowed by feelings of grief, loneliness, or distress. As the world celebrates the birth of Christ, Christ Church also recognizes and honors the grief carried by those whose relationships have been altered or lost through death or other forms of separation. Christ Church offers this special communal worship service for all who are grieving, suffering loss, and seeking a liturgy that speaks to their pain.

While the world glows with holiday cheer, some ache from loss or pain in their lives. Eureka First Baptist Church’s Longest Night Service offers a moment to stop and grieve, reflect, and hope for the days ahead. On the longest night of the calendar year, we remember who God is and that He is with us even in the dark.Join on Sunday, December 21 at 4 PM, at 422 Del Norte Street in Eureka. Please contact the church office at (707) 443-0406 for more information.

The Longest Night Service will provide a space for grief, sorrow, and lament for those who have experienced loss during this year (or previous years). During times of celebration and gatherings with family and friends, loss is felt most keenly. The Longest Night Service will be an opportunity to name those losses before God through song, prayer, and readings. Childcare will available for children 0-10.

All are welcome to join the Town Church family in celebration of the birth of Jesus on Christmas Eve. The Incarnation will be remembered in a traditional manner with readings, singing Christmas carols, and lighting the Advent Wreath candles. Bring your family and friends to remember the beautiful story of Christmas together.
