Tonight (Nov. 24), we begin the 20th celebration of the Advent Sun Wreath Ceremony. Join us! Tell your friends. May our prayer spell be blessed as we gather across time zones and geography, for in our hearts we are united.

We are facing some of the darkest times ever seen. But we’ve made a global, holy circle that cannot be broken. Rejoice! The Child of Promise is born.

Blessings on this ancient Celtic holy day of feasting, fire, and thanksgiving. Named for shining Lugh, let us gather in and share our first harvests.
