Welcome & Announcements
Prelude: Lullaby by Billy Joel
Opening
Words
Lighting the Chalice Flame (in unison):
The
chalice lit amongst us is a beacon. A beacon of hope, in a world in crisis. A
beacon of possibility, made manifest in our community. A beacon of warmth
through our interconnections. A beacon of light illuminating our shared wisdom.
A beacon of connection by our being together.

Extinguishing
the Chalice Flame (in

the fire of commitment. These we carry in our hearts until we are together
again.
