New Year's Eve Meditation between 4:30-5:30 p.m.
Before the parties and dinners begin, come to church on New Year's Eve anytime between 4:30-5:30 . This is your time--a time to do what you need to do to let God care for you. There will be a bulletin to guide your meditation, or you may simply pray your own prayers. When you are ready, you can come forward to light a candle and receive Holy Communion. Come and remember that in all the changes we face in life with the passing of time, there is always One who is eternally holding us, loving us, and teaching us the sacredness of our lives.
