  • The painting “Our Banner in the Sky” (1861) by Frederic Edwin Church. The lower third of the painting is a dark landscape with hills, trees, and a river. The top two-thirds consists of the sky, with streaks of clouds colored red by the light of the setting sun, and a patch of starry night sky visible. A limbless tree trunk rises on the left, and combined with the red and white lines of clouds and the patch of starry sky, gives the impression of the flag of the United States flying on a flagpole.
    Oh Spirit of Life and Love, fortify us with the wisdom and tenacity of our ancestors to continue toward the promise in the founding documents of our nation: a nation where all of us are created as equals and are endowed with the inalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

  • A young Black person wearing a dark blue-black durag and a white T-shirt faces away from us, with their left hand raised in a fist and their right hand holding a hand-drawn sign on white paperboard. The sign’s text, in reddish-brown ink, says: “Liberty & Justice for ALL!” The person is standing in front of a small group of people, too blurry to make out distinctly.
    Our faith also gives us hope. A faith that knows that transformation is a holy and sacred task, that affirms that the democratic process is a faithful act, that brings a generous heart and a lens of justice and liberation to all that we do, that values equality and equity and is centered in love.

  • In a somewhat crowded church or community center, two middle-aged men lean over a chair to embrace one another. One has greying hair and is wearing a light blue short-sleeve shirt, and one has black hair and is wearing an olive-green short-sleeve shirt.
    As we set down this work for the day, may we release with it all that has wounded us, keeping close only what has fed and enlivened our spirit... When we bless the world with our love, we are blessed in return.

  • A man with light brown skin in a white T-shirt and with his black hair in a ponytail holds a binder and a small American flag on a stick as he stands on the porch of a house. He is turned partly away from us, and is speaking with an older man, also with light brown skin, whose gray hair falls past his shoulders onto his blue, green, and purple plaid shirt. The older man is inside the house, and the door is open.
    In these times of fragmentation... to canvass is to choose the deeper assurance of interconnectedness and to heed the call of radical, all-embracing love.

  • 40 or 50 varied and colorful lamps hanging in a display at lamp market. In the background, dimly lit, is a person working with other lamps.
    Let our hearts be welcoming of multiple truths, not holding hard or fast to closed mindedness or judgmental thinking. What can we learn from each other in the richness of our differences?

  • A person in a black top and blue pants, out of focus, stands looking away from the camera on a forest path. Our point of view is ground level, and in the foreground, in focus, there is a dry brown fallen leaf.
    We lift up those who fear that their hurts, their pains, are too insignificant for healing. May they know that their hurt and their pain is valid, no matter the size, and may they feel comforted in the knowledge that they are not alone and that they are loved.

  • A photo captures a sky, a Black person's upraised fist, and a cardboard sign (as if at a protest) that says, "Freedom Day Juneteenth"
    Let us rejoice for those who safely passed through the shades of night towards the daylight of freedom.

  • The Juneteenth flag: A solid white five-pointed star on a field of blue and red. The border between the blue top half and the red bottom half is an arch that passes through the center of the star. The five-pointed star is surrounded by the outline of a larger 12-pointed star.
    May we remember the atrocities that brought us here.

  • The first slide of a slide deck. The main text, in a green box, says “A Blessing for Queer Youth of Faith,” and the author’s name, Rev. Cathy Rion Starr, appears below the box. On the right side there is a graphic of a purple tulip-like flower, intertwined with a six-color Pride rainbow banner. At the bottom right are the words “Side with Love” next to the Side with Love heart logo, in Pride colors.
    Bless you, for who you are, right now, right here. Bless you in your queerness, your genderfabulousness, your questioning, wondering, exploring, declaring. Bless you in the words you create and evolve and claim for yourself.

  • A frozen soap bubble rests on snowy ground, with the sun setting on the horizon in the background.

  • A woman waves a progress pride flag (a rainbow flag with additional concentric triangles in white, pink, blue, brown, and black) while standing near the top of a statue of the Three Graces in Montpellier, France. A second person, wrapped in a pride flag, stands nearby on the statue.
    May this flag inspire us to live with pride, to embrace our truths, and to unite in the face of adversity.

  • A Black man's hand is holding a mirror, in which we see a partial reflection of his face. Our point of view is from over his shoulder, so in the foreground we see a slightly out-of-focus portion of the back of his head.
    In this heartbreak what we carry forth is our humanity in newly revealed form—our hearts tender and delicate.
