{Blessed Solstice}



{Midwinter Prayer}

God of all creation
of bare forest and low northern skies
of paths unknown and never to be taken
of bramble, sparrow and damp, dark earth


We thank you for loss, for the breaking of the dimming year
We thank you for light, even in its seeming midwinter failing
We thank you for life, for its hope and resistance
like a seed dying and living


{Amen}
