Blessed be the darkness,
the cold, and the silence. Blessed be those who wait for the coming of the light. Blessed be the creatures who teach us how to wait. Blessed be the earth that shows us how to hold stillness. Blessed be winter, season of reflection, rest, and resilience. Blessed be the light that returns faithfully each year. - Wendy Janzen

Fourth Sunday of Advent
Four flames, lights shining in the deepest, darkest time of the year, moving us closer to the arrival of the one for whom we’ve been waiting and watching. These lights shine sacred love, love which births everything into existence, love which begets wholeness love that stirs our hearts and shows us the path to deep love. - Wendy Janzen Third Sunday of Advent
Three candles, a trinity of light, a holy mystery, an interrelationship of revelations and incarnations. Flames dancing with joy and life, engaging and laughing like the one who loved children spoke in riddles welcomed all and brought healing to the brokenness of the world, and, celebrating the one who was and is always here, bigger than we ever imagined, holding both our fear and our joy. - Wendy Janzen Second Sunday of Advent
Two lit candles - a sacred conversation inviting us in and drawing us closer, reminding us of the dynamic relationship between earth and heaven, light and dark, body and soul. a conversation since The beginning of time, engaging all the world and pulling us into a peaceful embrace with the one who is the divine indwelling holding all things together. - Wendy Janzen |
