• Gather participants together in a circle.
• Pragmatics:
• Ask for a volunteer to write some chalice lighting words for next time.
• For the next session, ask participants to bring objects that help express who they are and their identities as student, soccer player, cook, and the like.
• Arrange and/or confirm youth co-leaders for next session (optional).
• Invite participants to reflect on the session: What worked? What did not?
• Close with a benediction. If your congregation has one that youth know, use that. If not, share a simple blessing such as:

May the spirit of life and love hold you and keep you until we meet again.
