Pastor Cornelius Triwidya Tjahja Utama who leads
the Hati Kudus Jesus Church in Surabaya, East Java, said Christmas 2022 was a momentum .
Scripture for Life: All our Nativity stories include hints of the end both the cross and resurrection, Jesus' rejection and love's triumph through him. Christmas reminds us that God remains among us weak and mild.
Coinciding with the winter solstice, the Longest Night is a prayer service aimed at offering comfort to people who struggle with the in-your-face, over-the-top joy sometimes demanded during the Christmas season.
