“LONGEST NIGHT” - An Order of WorshipĬentering Music: Any soothing piece of music, such as “In the Bleak Midwinter,” played on instruments, not sung. In some churches it is also known as Blue Christmas. This service offers a way for people to claim those feelings and still feel surrounded by the compassionate love of God. It acknowledges that, for many people, Christmas is a time of loneliness, sorrow, alienation, sadness. Longest Night is a worship service that may be planned at any time during Advent, for many churches it is celebrated on December 21st the longest day of the year.
