Blue Christmas Service
Blue Christmas Service – December 19, 2016 @ 7 PM
We all know people in our fellowships who will likely not have a white Christmas because of unexpected and less than ideal circumstances in their lives, either the loss of a loved one, divorce, illness, or any number of trials that might be going on. This service will be led by Russ Murphy out of Lubbock who suddenly and unexpectedly lost his wife in 2014 and saw God do amazing things through that trial. He is now remarried and ministers with his bride.
