• Chalice, candle, and lighter or LED battery-operated candle
• Optional: Decorative cloth

• Set up a worship or centering table with the chalice and (optional) decorative cloth.

Light the chalice and share these words:

We light this chalice as a beacon of the free church tradition,

a tradition that lives on in us,

a tradition that calls us together by covenant,

by mutual promise to walk together in the ways of faith.

May ours be a community of love that calls us ever to peace, hope, justice.
