Blue Christmas Worship Service
"Blue Christmas" services are quiet, contemplative services that are typically held on the evening of December 21, the winter solstice. This day, which has the longest night and the shortest day, is symbolic of our darker nights when we find ourselves grieving, lonely, or longing for something better.
The Holidays can be challenging... especially for those who are experiencing loss or depression. You are not alone. We hope you will join us.

Christmas Eve "Candlelight & Communion" Service
Join us for a magical Christmas Eve as we celebrate the birth of Christ through an intimate and joy-filled worship service designed for all ages.
Experience the wonder of Christmas through:
- The sharing of Holy Communion
- Special moments with our children
- Traditional carols and beloved Christmas hymns
- Our signature candlelight ceremony
As our service draws to a close, we'll gather in unity to sing "Silent Night" by candlelight. Then, in a beautiful gesture of bringing Christ's light into our community, we'll process together into the streets, carrying our candles as symbols of hope and love into the world.
This meaningful celebration welcomes everyone, from lifetime members to first-time visitors, from the youngest children to our wisest elders.
Come be part of this special evening as we remember the holy night when hope was born in a manger!
No reservations needed. All are invited and all are welcome at Trinity United Methodist Church.

"An Unlikely Advent" by Rachel Billups: A Five Week Bible Study with Pastor Jen
Sundays after Worship (11:15), 12/01-12/29
We all know how Mary fits into the Christmas Story... and Joseph... and the angels... and of course Jesus. But how well do you know the details about the "background characters"? Elizabeth and Zechariah?
What about the Magi and the Shepherds? What about... Herod?? As Rachel Billups says, "These B-Players usually emerge as 'extras' in God's story, but I could not help but wonder if they might have more to teach us about the intersection of God's story with ours."
This five-week Advent study focuses on the experiences of four sets of often overlooked characters in the Nativity story. During this Advent season, Rachel Billups guides readers through the themes of hope, love, joy, and peace by sharing the stories of Elizabeth and Zechariah, Herod, the Magi, and the shepherds. Each set of unexpected characters has something to teach about living faithfully on the journey to Christmas.
We hope you will join us on Sundays after worship (about 11:15) for lively discussion! Please contact Pastor Jen with questions or to reserve your book at: [email protected]
