Local churches prepare for special Christmas services

The holiday season has always been a special time in Floyd: a moment when the cooler air helps to bring our mountain community together and feel more connected.

For many, this time of year is about more than just decorations and family dinners— it’s about the fellowship that comes from gathering with neighbors, sharing music, exchanging stories, and simply being present with one another. In moments of joy and in moments of sadness, having the support of familiar faces can make all the difference. We are fortunate to live in a place where community truly matters, and where many doors to gathering spaces remain open to everyone. To participate in something greater than themselves.

The holidays can also carry a deeper spiritual significance, offering an opportunity to reflect, to renew one’s sense of that connection, and to celebrate faith alongside family and with friends.

For those seeking a place, Floyd County’s churches continue to serve as those pillars. Across the county, congregations are preparing services, musical programs, plays, candlelight gatherings, and other traditions that highlight the heart of Christmas. These events don’t just offer worship; they offer communion and fellowship.

The Floyd Willis Lutheran Parish, including St. Mark Lutheran in Willis and Zion Lutheran in Floyd, will hold a joint "Lessons and Carols Service" on Sunday, Dec. 28 at 10:30 a.m., also at the church on Needmore Lane.

Each of these churches brings its own traditions and spirit to the season, but all share the same welcoming message: you are invited, you are valued, and you belong here.

This Holiday season, let us gather around tables, in sanctuaries, and in community spaces to continue to show that we are thankful for each other and this little slice of the Blue Ridge and means so much to so many.
