A service exploring the qualities of happiness and happy people, and the obstacles and allies on our path to happiness. We will sing about it too.

Holiday celebrations

Eli Poore December 15 | 10:30 am

Holiday celebrations—whether Solstice, Christmas, Hanukkah, or Kwanzaa—share a common thread: the theme of light returning in the midst of deep darkness. These traditions remind us of the enduring hope that even in the bleakest of times, light finds a way to shine through. In this service, we will explore these celebrations and their connection to the theme of “Light as Liberation”—a light that does more than illuminate; it liberates. This light carries the promise of freedom, belonging, and renewal for all people. It is the spark that breaks chains, guides us toward justice, and ignites the flame of collective transformation. Together, we will reflect on how this light calls us to action, to create a world where all can experience the warmth of liberation and the power of a brighter tomorrow.
