Longest Night Service: Finding Christmas peace in times of grief or stress.
Winter Solstice marks a pivotal event in nature’s cycle, symbolizing the rebirth of light after the longest night of the year. This is a contemplative service in the Celtic tradition acknowledging the grief, loss, and challenges occurring in a time of year often associated with celebration. Whether you are feeling anxious, lonely, or simply need a pause to connect with God in this busy season, “The Longest Night” service provides a welcoming environment to experience the love and presence of Christ. Sponsored by the Office of the Chaplain at Randolph-Macon College and Duncan Memorial United Methodist Church in the college chapel (Duncan Memorial Church).
