Thank you, January, for welcoming us to the threshold of a pilgrimage.
We begin by blessing the year that is done:
May we remember the gifts and the wild grace amidst the challenges and losses.
And we bless the year to come:
May we surround this new year with possibility and promise.
May we grow together on the pilgrimage of this year in gratitude for what is and hope for what will be.
May this year open your heart in new ways, shine light in new places, and hold love beyond your wildest dreams.
