Opening Words
Lighting the Chalice Flame (in unison):
We
light this chalice to affirm that new light is ever waiting to break through to
enlighten our ways: That new truth is ever waiting to break through to warm our
hearts. May we be open to this light, and to the rich possibilities that it
brings us.

another.

Extinguishing
the Chalice Flame (in

again.
