Service Description: The ancient stories of the winter holiday provide an entrée into a place of deeper knowing that transcends the busyness of holiday merry-making. These stories capture life’s challenges at a rudimentary level and help remind us of who we are and what we long to be. What do these stories tell us about what we hold sacred – join us as we explore.
