The holidays can be a difficult time, and it’s okay to feel blue when the world around you is celebrating. Sometimes, acknowledging those feelings and sitting with them can be a meaningful part of the season.

At Westlake UMC, we invite you to Christmas & the Blues—an evening of soulful blues music and heartfelt storytelling. Together, we’ll share honest stories about navigating the holidays when joy feels out of reach, finding comfort and strength through shared experiences.

This free event also offers an opportunity to make a donation benefiting Wonders & Worries, a nonprofit providing professional support to children and teens facing a parent’s serious illness. Westlake UMC will double every donation. After the event, stay for a warm cookie reception hosted by Vik Complete Care of Westlake.
