The holiday season is supposed to be about family and friends and joy to the world, right? But when Christmas comes around, what if you don’t feel especially jolly?

Maybe you’re missing someone, and you feel their absence especially hard at Christmas. Maybe you’ve lost a job, or a friend, or a loved one. Or maybe you just need a place where you don’t have to pretend to be happy all the time. Maybe you just need a break from the frenetic rush.

First Presbyterian Church of Benton Harbor and Fairplain Presbyterian Church are co-hosting a time for that at Fairplain this year on Monday, December 17, at 6:30 pm, and we would love to have you join us. Even if you are part of another church, or don’t attend church at all, you are welcome, and no one will try to pressure you into worshiping with us at any other time.
