Winter Solstice Ritual

Welcome winter and the lengthening of days as we celebrate a Winter Solstice Ritual at the First Unitarian Church of Baltimore on Sunday, December 21 at 7 pm. We will enjoy songs, poetry, stories, symbolic extinguishing of the old year’s fire and lighting of the new, turning the Wheel of the Year, giving thanks for seasonal blessings, tasting seasonal sweets, and blessing newborn babies. A reception will follow in adjacent Pratt Hall. To register your babe (under 1 year old) for a blessing, email: [email protected] by December 17. To attend via Zoom, email [email protected] for a code.

The ritual is being conducted by Patricia Montley, author of In Nature’s Honor: Myths and Rituals Celebrating the Earth, whose op-ed pieces on seasonal holidays have appeared in The Baltimore Sun.
