Cancelling Services Dec 24 - Jan 2

Greetings,

We are sorry to inform you that someone who attended church on Sunday, December 19th tested positive for COVID on Monday. In response to this, Briarwood's Session has taken the difficult decision to cancel worship services on Dec. 24th, Dec. 26th, and Jan. 2nd. Out of an abundance of caution, the remaining services in the month of January will be pre-recorded online only.

We know that this is a very special time of year for worship. Below you will find links to our two Christmas Eve services and our Lessons and Carols service from 2020, and our Epiphany service from January 2021.

Even in the midst of trials and tribulations, God is with us through Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit. In the face of so much loss, uncertainty, and fear, Jesus’s light shines in order to dispel this darkness. God continues to bring us hope, peace, joy, and love even when we least expect it. May you keep alert and keep watch for the gifts God is bringing you this Christmas season.
