Wilton churches plan ‘Blue Christmas’ service

The Wilton Ecumenical Community Outreach (WECO) churches are scheduled to hold a “Blue Christmas” service at 4 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 21, at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church, 59 High St.

Blue Christmas is a day in the Advent season marking the longest night of the year.

On this day, WECO will hold a church service that honors and supports people that are grieving, living with depression, and those who wrestle with addiction.

All in attendance are required to wear a face mask at all times. Windows will be open in order to provide ventilation, so attendees should dress accordingly.

This is a non-denominational service; all are welcome. WECO includes St. Luke’s Episcopal (and guests from Christ Church Norway), Wilton United Methodist, First Congregational, and East Wilton Baptist churches.

For more information, contact St. Luke’s at 207-645-2639 or [email protected].

Livestreams will be available on St. Luke’s Episcopal and Christ Church Episcopal Church Facebook pages.
