We light this chalice to remind ourselves of that flame

We light this chalice to remind ourselves of that flame which burns in each of our hearts;
Remembering that when flame meets flame,
match meets candle,
the two become one,
belonging to each other.
Many flames join together to form the warmth of community, of congregation, of city, of nation.
We gather here together to remind ourselves of our inner lights and to join with others to light the way to a good world community.
But before we can shine a light on that path, we must remind ourselves of who we are, we must know who we are.
We are Unitarians, Universalists, friends, visitors, seekers.
Let us worship together.
