  • A black-and-white photo of a large adult hand, open and facing upward, with a lit tea light in its palm.
    As we light this chalice, may each breath remind us of the sacred rhythm of life, the pulse of creation, and the power we hold to shape the world around us.

  • A green wooden door set in an ivy-covered wall. The door is locked with a padlock. On the upper part of the door, at about eye level, there is a small hole in the shape of a heart.
    Today in UU congregations all over the world, people will gather in an effort to live into, as best as we can, what we profess about placing love at the center of all we do.

  • A baby with brown skin looks directly with wide eyes at the camera while being held by a woman with brown skin and black hair, wearing a white sweater with two blue stripes around the upper arm. The woman is turned partly away from us, so that what is visible to us is her right shoulder, part of her back, and the right side of her face. Her eyes are closed and her mouth is in a gentle smile. The baby looks at us over her shoulder with an expression of excitement and curiosity.
    Beloved Child — May you know great love; may you feel deep joy; may you understand the work of justice and the light of truth.

  • A long-exposure photograph showing a trail of sparks in the shape of a heart, against a background that is mostly darkness. The person holding the sparkler is just barely visible as a reddish blur behind the sparkler’s trail, which repeats the heart shape four or five times in roughly the same location.
    Love begets love, and it is love that lights our chalice.

  • An aerial view of a public park in autumn. The main feature is a large circular area, perhaps hundreds of yards across, whose perimeter is marked by large trees. The circle is divided by walking paths into eight equal sections, meeting at a very large tree in the center of the circle.
    We join together in solidarity as a covenanted people, who are drawn together by the promise of connection and the mysterious pull of the unanswerable.

The central flower has yellow, green, and purple petals, red in the center. The second most prominent flower has green petals, with red in the center.
    Blessings shall follow us all the days of our lives if we live in and return to right relationships, if we extend grace and forgiveness to ourselves and others, if we behold mercy as a spiritual superpower.

  • A young orange, brown, and white tabby cat lies on a bed with its eyes closed. The cat is on a light brown fleece blanket, and a pillow with a floral pillowcase is visible behind it. Sunlight rakes in at a low angle and illuminates part of the cat and the blanket.
    Sometimes we awake in the morning, and we’d rather go back to sleep… And then, the first sliver of sunshine may dance across our face.

  • A white woman with neck-length reddish brown hair, wearing brown glasses and a dark green top, holds her right hand to her heart while closing her eyes. She is standing and facing to our left. In the same room, behind her and out of focus, are other people also standing in prayerful postures.
    We come together in this quiet moment to unify our hearts again towards the clarion call of our time: May justice and equity guide us to great connection, a greater truth.

  • A black-and-white photo of the full moon, close to the horizon and behind a tiny wisp of clouds, over the calm but not glassy surface of the Pacific ocean. The water reflects the moon’s light, forming a bright streak between the viewer and the moon.
    Here in the quiet, may we lift up our hearts in gratitude for the gifts of our lives, pausing in thanksgiving.

  • 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?

  • A greyscale image of the tiny feet of a baby held in a pair of adult hands, with larger adult hands cradling both. The symmetrical arrangement of hands and feet somewhat resembles a heart. Behind the hands and feet, we can see a little of the clothes covering the baby’s belly.
    Later, poets would tell of stars, shepherds, and seers, songs of angels…

  • The bronze statue of Atlas that stands above the entrance of the central train station in Frankfurt. Atlas struggles to hold the Earth — with a band of figures representing the twelve astrological signs surrounding the equator — on his back and shoulders. Atlas is aided by allegorical figures representing Steam and Electricity.
    We call upon all the transcendent gifts of renewal to be bestowed upon us, for an energizing renewal to fill us in all the ways that serve our lagging spirits when our own resilience wanes.

  • An overhead view of a few square feet of a street paved with concrete bricks, showing the yellow flower of a dandelion growing in the space between two bricks. The flower is on the right side of the photograph, and its color matches a yellow stripe painted on the pavement, which fills the left third of the photo.
    Spirit of Love, come alongside with all the holy nudges that we need, so we may live in such a way that we celebrate all the blessings that we have been given. So we may be the blessings in the world.
