Does Your Church Have Watch Night Service?
Just curious if Watch Night Service is a common theme accross all of Pentecost or is it mostly African American churches that have church service on New Years Eve. I ask because I was doing some research and it stated that it comes from slaves waiting for the Emancipation Proclamation back in 1862 (which was a suprise to me). I grew up thinking that every church had watch night and then as I became an adult, I noticed only certain churches did it and didnt understand why everyone didnt do it. Sooooooo, just curious to see what responses I get.
