Alive in All Creation

A chalice, by Nebraska potter Thomas Hamilton, inspired by the local landscape of rivers and prairie -- river glaze colors, edge plants and stones, birds, and three rivers meeting in the cup.

This chalice, used by the First Unitarian Church of Omaha (NE), was made by local potter Thomas Hamilton. It was inspired by the local landscape of rivers and prairie: river glaze colors, edge plants and stones, birds, and three rivers meeting in the cup.

Spark of the spirit
cupped in earth’s embrace,
Light of love
alive in all creation,
As we kindle this flame,
we rekindle our connection
to the sacred web of life.
