Blue Christmas
The holiday season brings joy and fun, but it can also bring grief and loss. Many of us experienced personal loss this year, whether from the death of a loved one, a heavy medical diagnosis, or being let go from a job. All of this can be a lot to bear on a human soul. Having a safe place to gather together in our grief is one way to experience healing. Please consider attending our Community Blue Christmas gathering on Thursday, Dec 18, at 6 p.m. at UCC, 403 Maroon Ave., in Crested Butte. Everyone is welcome, non-religious folks and religious folks, Gunnison and Crested Butte, young and old and in between. Questions? Contact Kelly Jo Clark 970-209-1613.
