For many Christian churches, the Christmas Eve service is a special tradition that celebrates a holy night with family, music and prayer.
But this year, on the Coastside, the annual celebration wonât take place in person. Because of the stay-at-home orders put in effect to reduce the spread of coronavirus, Coastside churches are collaborating with KHMB Radio to provide a socially distanced candle-lighting and âSilent Nightâ service.
At 10 p.m. on Christmas Eve, participants are encouraged to light a candle, go outside their home, tune in to KHMB Radio and sing along with the Community United Methodist Church music ministry’s rendition of “Silent Night.” To learn more and access lyrics, visit hmbcumc.org. KHMB Radio can be found at 100.9 FM, 1710 AM and streamed online at khmbradio.com.
