Description

Ritual is part of our daily lives. Rituals are the ways we honor moments of significance. The
special occasions that bring us into community with loved ones throughout the year. The carols
we sing at Christmas, the blowing out of birthday candles, the first dance at a wedding, the
pallbearers carrying the casket, the blessing of babies in our places of worship. We need rituals
to make sense of the world.

And we need rituals to make room for the holy in our presence, to recognize that the holy is
already among us.
