Dear fellow Hanoverians:
Christmas is proclaimed as a season of joy, peace and love. But for some people, the happiness of the season eludes them. For some, it could be a time of grief, because a loved one will not be home for the holidays. For others it could be a time of stress and guilt because they want to provide the best holiday for friends and family, but this economy makes that difficult if not impossible. For others still, this could be a time of worry because a new diagnosis of illness or prolonged treatment make it hard to muster any enthusiasm. At the First Congregational Church of Hanover, they will honor the challenge of this season in a time of prayer and reflection known as the Longest Night. On Sunday morning, December 14th, at 8:30 a.m., you are invited to share the struggles of the season and to hear the hope, courage and comfort which are the true heart of this season. The church is located at 515 Hanover Street (Route 139) in Hanover Center. For more information, call the church office at 781-926-4762 or visit their website at www.fcchanoverucc.org
