Christmas Eve

Central United Methodist Church

Traverse City, Michigan - Christmas Eve, 1991

I think my church during the advent season is one of the most beautiful places I know. I have many fond memories of candlelight Christmas Eve services, snuggled close in a pew with my family, listening to the English handbells play and humming Silent Night for what seemed an eternity. For many years, I've dreamed of being married here during this beautiful season...bridesmaids in black (or midnight blue or deep purple or hunter green) velvet...a lovely white lacy dress with pointy sleeves...a handsome man at my side...*sigh*
