Trinity Lutheran Church, 2701 24th St., Great Bend, will hold a “Longest Night” service at 7 p.m. on the longest night of the year, Wednesday, Dec. 21.Christmas can be a painful time for some. It may be the first Christmas without a loved family member who has passed away; it may be a time that has always been difficult. The constant refrains on the radio, TV, in shopping malls and in churches, remind many people of what they have lost or have never had.
