Chalice Lighting by Rebekah A. Savage
We light our flaming chalice each week with a simple spark to make holy our time
together.
With this flame, may our Highest Intentions be refreshed.
With this flame, may we remember who we are and whose we are.
With this flame, may our faith be renewed and reignited to guide our journey.
Amen, and may it be so.

Extinguishing the Flame
Based on the words of MLK: “Faith is taking the first step even when you can't see the whole
staircase.”
Go with faith,
not the kind that is called to move mountains,
but the quieter sort
that calls us to take the first step
even when the whole staircase sits beyond our view.
And as we stride toward the unseen
may we notice that the way unfolds only as we risk walking it
and may we remember and trust
that none of these steps are ones we take alone.
Amen
Benediction
Carry the Flame Carry the flame of peace and love until we meet again (2X)
