First Church Community Christmas Celebrations
Christmas Eve in the Stable
Dec. 24, 6 p.m. at Daniels Farm
By sitting on bales of hay, with living, breathing animals nearby, our understanding of “God in the Flesh” will be deeply enriched. Daniels Farm is located on Millbook Road, 1.2 miles south of Randolph Road. A sign will be on the left side of the road. Turn left in the driveway and stay to the left. The barn where we will be is on the far left (north) side of the property as you face it from the road. Someone will be there to guide you for parking. It might help if you bring a flashlight, since the grounds outside the barn are dark and it can be wet or icy.
Candlelight Communion Service
Dec. 24, 10:00 p.m. in the sanctuary at 190 Court Street
Sermon, special music, Holy Communion, and Carols sung by candlelight at the close of the service. The offering received on Christmas Eve will be directed toward the Middletown Fuel Bank to help our neighbors with heating costs.
Free Community Christmas Day Dinner
Dec. 25, noon to 2 p.m. in the Parish Hall at 190 Court Street
Turkey, ham, potatoes, stuffing, pies, fruit, cookies, carol singing, and an abundance of Christmas joy and good will. Call 860-346-6657 x 15 for transportation or home delivery.
Candlelight service at St. Paul's on High Street is at 10:30 PM tonight.
ReplyDeleteI am going to disengage from the Web and spend the next 24 hours having an analog Christmas, real humans and everything!
Merry Christmas to all!
