Today is the third day of the Unitarian Universalist festival of light. Chalica is seven days long and runs from the first Monday in December through to Sunday. Each day represents a different Unitarian Principle, a chalice is lit each day and we say why we light the chalice for that day. Gift(s) can be given and received. Gifts can be made, bought, verbal, written, acts, and/or shared/personal celebrations. One can have seven different chalices or one common chalice

Wednesday: We light our chalice for acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations. Give gift(s) to honor fellow Unitarians and their spiritual journey.

Examples:

– a chalice / book / hymnal

– extend words of peace or forgiveness to a fellow Unitarian with whom you may have hurt / not understood in the past

– offer / take part in an event at your church / with your congregation

– church potluck
