| Winter Solstice Celebration with the JRUUC Sacred Breath Choir, Heather Yonker, and Rev. Karen Saturday, December 18 at 5:00 pm This is an abbreviated virtual version of our annual tradition. Members of the JRUUC Sacred Breath choir, along with Music Director Heather Yonker, have recorded some of their favorite Solstice music, around which Rev. Karen has woven reflections and meditations. Please record yourself “passing the light” as outlined in this video and send it to Rev. Karen by December 16 so you can be part of the candle-lighting ritual. |

| “Blue Holidays” Vespers with Rev. Karen Wednesday, December 8 at 6:30 pm The winter holidays are usually framed around peace and joy and hope, and if you’re not feeling those themes right now, you’re not alone. You’re invited to this evening service, where we’ll share and ritualize the losses, fears, regrets, and sorrows we’re feeling this holiday season, in the space we make sacred together. |
