The second annual Interfaith Blue Christmas Service takes place on the winter solstice, the longest night of the year, and is a chance for folks experiencing loss during the holiday season to reflect, grieve and hold space at a time of year when they may feel they are supposed to be happy and positive.

The service is put on by the same group of interfaith ministers who put on the Pride Shabbat. A collection of non-denominational prayers, readings and music are curated for an atmosphere that allows for a tearful pause in the middle of all the pressuring hustle and bustle of this season.
