Traditionally this is a time to pause and acknowledge the longest night of the year. Through ceremony we honor the return of the light as we look forward to a New Year. To many people, this return to light is a reason to celebrate that nature's cycle is continuing. Join us in celebration through sound, drumming,meditation and prayer.
We gather together to bring a vision of peace.
Join us and be renewed. Bring drums, rattles,
and a dish to share.
Join us and come celebrate the Winter Solstice.
