Blue Christmas
Christmas can be a particularly difficult time for many people, as the holiday often magnifies feelings of loneliness, loss, and unmet expectations.

For those struggling with the pains of the holiday season, Genesis United Methodist Church invites you to join us on Saturday, December 21 at 7pm for a service dedicated to wrestling with these feelings.
