For someone who has experienced a loss, the thought of facing all the celebration and busyness of the Christmas season can be hard, and a Blue Christmas Service may provide an experience they will find helpful.

Shreve Community Church, 430 N. Main St., Shreve, will host a Blue Christmas Service on Saturday, Dec. 23 at 6 p.m. The Blue Christmas Service is meant for people experiencing loss and facing difficult circumstances during the holidays.

Individuals may come because they are lonely, mourning the death of a loved one, struggling financially, experiencing conflict with another, suffering from illness or addiction, or have lost a job. The service is for those carrying pain or loss at this time of year and allows those in attendance the opportunity to reflect and grieve in a quiet atmosphere.

The service offers a message of God’s love, a time for reflection and an invitation to light a candle in memory of a loved one or in recognition of other losses.

Shreve Community Church also will host a 13-week GriefShare program beginning Jan. 11 and continuing each Thursday through April 11 from 7-8:30 p.m.

For more information about the service or GriefShare, call 330-567-2051.
