  • A shirtless man with body piercings and tattoos is shown from the waist up. He's looking down at his chest, and touching a scar suggesting that he's had a double mastectomy.
    Here we are. Still here, as we have always been, and not going anywhere.

  • A woman and man lie next to a sleeping baby wrapped in a fluffy white terrycloth robe. The woman, who has brown skin and somewhat wavy black hair, is wearing a similar robe and is kissing the baby’s forehead with her eyes closed. The man, who has brown skin and black hair and whiskers and is wearing a black shirt, rests on his right elbow and looks on, smiling.
    Today, you stand at a precipice, a turning point, a moment when you will look back and observe a clear before and after.

  • A close-up of part of a store display of gift cards. In front of a white backing labeled “Gift Cards” we see a variety of gift cards from a number of companies, ranging in value from $25 to $500.
    This week, our beloved community brushed up against the shadows of this world. Against individuals who wished to cause harm and chaos in the lives of others without reason or cause.

  • Four leaves float on very calm water. The leaves, perhaps from a beech tree, are shades of yellow, red, and orange.
    Golden leaves and harvest cheer, We gather close as frost draws near. But whispers rise from warming seas; A planet pleads beneath the trees…

  • In a room with white walls we see a rectangular wooden dining table, with six blue placemats, five of which hold place settings, and one of which is empty. There are wooden chairs at the places with settings, but no chair at the empty placemat. In the background there are some sideboards, and there are small framed pieces of art on the walls.
    How, each morning after you left this earth, did the sun decide to rise once again?

  • A farmhouse on the Oklahoma plains, with stormy skies overhead and a rainbow stretching from the ground to the right of the house up into the sky over it. The house, with white sides and a bright red roof, has several dormer windows and a cupola. It is attached to a covered garage or stable that is nearly as large as the house itself.
    May your courage be louder than the whispers. May your glitter outshine their glares. May your love be stubborn as red dirt clay, and your joy roll on like prairie wind.

  • A view, from within the crowd, of participants in a pride parade on a city street. Most of the frame is filled with dozens of rainbow Pride flags being waved by individual marchers.
    Blessed are we, the whole queer family, for love is our birthright, and joy is our inheritance.

  • A child wearing headphones and a blue hooded coat sits on a bench facing a wintry landscape of snow, dead grass, and bare trees. Their dark hair is pulled back, and their back is to the camera.
    May you know, deep in your bones, that none of this is your fault. May your heart remain soft enough to love and strong enough to protect itself.

  • A drawing, on a textured greenish grey surface using a thick white pen or brush, of a very simplified outline of a human head in profile, with many curved and twisting arrows pointing outwards from the head.
    Blessed are the unfocused, for they notice the sparks of divinity that illuminate the world.…

  • A grassy meadow with purple flowers under a starry sky showing the Milky Way. The entire top half of the image is the night sky. Between the sky and the meadow, we see the silhouettes of the hills surrounding the meadow, with a soft glowing light behind them.
    In neo-Pagan traditions, we recognize five elements: Earth, Air, Fire, Water, and Spirit. We call on these Elements to help us in a variety of ways…

  • 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.

  • 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 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.

  • Silhouette of a hand reaching for a doorknob. The door key is still in the lock, and other keys dangle from the ring. Metal hardware gleams on the edge of the door.
