Resting in Darkness, Welcoming the Light
With the shortest day of the year just behind us, we celebrate the Winter Solstice with a service of music and reflection. This turning point of the year invites us to remember the beauty and gifts we find in darkness while we also look to the return of longer days. This turn of the earth, this opportunity to be present to the stillness and darkness of late December offers a steady balance to the growing light, where we find ourselves looking ahead to what may come.
