  • At night, from the vantage point of a dark stretch of beach, there are three light sources visible: On the left there is a lighthouse, shining bright streams of light in several directions; on the right, the moon glows behind a light cloud cover; and in the middle, we see fainter light from several houses farther down the coast. The foam from the sea is also visible, and shows the shoreline stretching in a straight line from the lower right of the photo to the houses in the middle of the photo.
    We cannot know what all the year may bring, and would we heed the prophecy if we could?

  • Rays of sunlight stream down through a break in the cloudy sky, showing green plants and trees on mountains that otherwise look dark.
    Let beauty in. Let beauty in like waves lapping on the shore, covering the beach and soaking the sand like an embrace.

  • Two fireworks exploding in a deep black sky. The two explosions each take the shape of a dandelion, with streaks of white light coming out of a colorful center. The firework on the left is pale green, with red at the center; the one on the right ranges from yellow in the center to red and purple at the edges.
    Rejoice! May this time of worship celebrate what we know at our core.

  • In the foreground there is a mostly leafless sapling, standing in a field of brown grass. In the distance, at the far edges of the field, there much larger trees, still with green leaves.
    Justice is our prayer. We affirm in covenant with the Beloved Community that is possible.

  • A murmuration of birds, seen from a distance. The birds form a black cloud of varying density, seen against a sky streaked with clouds. The clouds near the horizon show a touch of red from the rising or setting sun.
    May our time together honor all the hopes we hold within; may our time together bless us with the gifts of inspiration, comfort and renewal.

  • Looking from inside a room through a set of four tall arched windows, we see a garden with some tall purple salvia-like flowers. Beyond the garden a wide grassy field stretches to the horizon, where there are trees and hills.
    There is no separation, here, of the sacred from the profane. No setting apart from the natural world.

  • A glass ball, held in a person’s hand at the sea shore, acts as a lens and shows an inverted image of the sea and the sunset sky. The image in the glass ball is sharp and in focus; the actual sea and sky, visible around the ball, is out of focus.
    As we light this chalice, we kindle the spirit of the great turning: the movement for justice alive in this nation today. May we feel it in our bones, and in the stillness of this hour, may we sense it calling our name.

  • Four people celebrating with arms raised, seen in silhouette against the sky. The sun is centered behind them, and the sky’s colors range from blue to pink.
    We are whole and holy; we are loved beyond all measure. And in our refusal to accept anything less, may we know we are rooted in the infinite divinity.

  • A lily blossom, with pale violet leaves and yellow stamens, floats in a pond. Our view is from directly above, and in the water around the blossom we see the reflection of the concentric circles of the frames supporting the glass roof of a greenhouse.
    We light this flame to remind us: love is the center. As we grow and connect, mature and deepen: love remains the center. When the light of truth burns all else away: love remains.

  • Against a uniform dark background, a bright yellow light shines in the upper left of the image. Rays of light and lens flare effects stream from the central light.

  • The face and arms of a young person, surrounded by darkness, are illuminated by the light from the fire in a sky lantern that he is holding and about to launch.

  • Through a heart-shaped window in the door of a light blue metal box, we see a glowing candle and its reflection.

  • A woman with long hair, mostly in silhouette, holds a sparkler near the camera. The camera is focused mostly on the bright red and yellow sparks, with the woman behind them slightly blurred.
    The essence that is you—that spark of life, is in your body; is of your body; and it is—you are—divine.

  • In a dark room, white-hot molten metal is poured from a crucible into a mold. We see leather-clad arms holding a long-handled tool to help guide the flow.
    Here we engage in a holy alchemy, finding beauty in the ordinary and life in the present.
