Celebrating the Season of Light:
Christmas, Hanukkah, Winter Solstice, Kwanzaa
Wednesdays | Nov 30 – Dec 28 | 7PM – 8:30PM CT | Fillmore Room
December is the Season of Light and Celebration – The light of reason, the light of faith, the light of culture and tradition, the light that heralds the immanent presence of a higher Power – all of these resonate when we think about darkness giving way to light:
Winter Solstice, the shortest day and longest night of the year, marking the point at which the life-giving sun’s retreat before darkness begins to reverse itself, the triumph of light over darkness
Hannukah, commemorating the rededication of the Jewish Temple in 2nd century BCE and the miracle of the oil lamps, symbolizing the resilience/survival of the Jewish people
Christmas, celebrating the birth of the Christ Child, the birth/rebirth of the Christ Consciousness that is within each of us. This is the appointed time when we choose to awaken/re-awaken to the Divine that is us
Kwanzaa, celebrating African American culture, dedicated to seven principles of African Heritage
