Blue Christmas (Longest Night) Service – December 22, 2025 at 7pm

 
Join us at Emory at 7:00 pm on Monday December 22nd for a Blue Christmas(Longest Night) worship service. We will be live-streaming service for those unable to attend in person.

A Blue Christmas Service, also known as a Longest Night service, is a time when we gather together to worship and to acknowledge those “blue” feelings we can get around the holidays. We aim to support each other as we experience grief and loss, but also to move us toward the hope that comes with the birth of Jesus Christ. Please join us for this time of rest and encouragement – whether you have lost a loved one, especially recently, are struggling with your faith, or are simply stressed out by the holidays.

On the evening of the longest night, we will sing together, hear God’s Word together, pray together, light candles together, and commune together.

The ensemble has had the pleasure of performing at such prestigious venues as the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., the Blue Ribbon School Awards Ceremony in Annapolis, the Maryland governor’s mansion, The White House, and The Kennedy Center. This dedicated group of singers has toured throughout the state of Maryland, and up and down the east coast.
