Inviting Tin Whistle

Irish Prelude – selection by Hollis Kellogg

Opening Words – Excerpt from A Celtic Lorica

By Maureen Killoran

May hope’s light guard us and keep cynicism from our hearts.
May the energy of laughter build endurance for the dark times of our lives.
May creativity’s vision grant the possibility of seeing old relationships with new eyes.
May the oil of healing keep us
from anger’s hardness or despair.
May the mantle of humility give courage to admit when we are wrong.

Welcome and Announcements

Chalice Lighting from the Dublin UU – recite together

We light our chalice in unity with other Unitarian Universalists in  Ireland and throughout the world, knowing that freedom of religion in many places is forbidden.  We light our chalice in gratitude.

We are grateful for brighter days.  We are grateful for the song of birds.

We are grateful for this gift of life, and love, and community.

We extinguish this flame but not the Light of Truth,

The Warmth of Community, or the fire of Commitment.

These we carry in our hearts until we are together again.

Community Postings

**Community Postings are listings of  local events that Members either support or are involved in. While they may be of interest to Members and Friends, they are not necessarily endorsed by the UUCRT.

Please Check Doors Before Leaving

This is a friendly reminder to all congregants and friends who may be in our 9 Vance Road building alone or in groups. If you are the last one out, please, before leaving, check all exit doors, even ones you have not used, by physically pushing them out to ensure that the latch is engaged. Often, the doors appear to be closed but the latch has not been engaged.
