Global Chalice Lighting for December


2014

ICUU announces the 136th in its monthly global chalice lighting readings.
Congregations worldwide are invited to use the reading for at least one
worship service in the designated month, identifying it as the

ICUU Global Chalice Lighting for that month. This Global Chalice
Lighting was originally submitted by the Canadian Unitarian Council and is for
use in December 2014.
ENGLISH:
In times of darkness we stumble towards the tiny flame.
In times of cold we seek the warming fire.
In times of repression we reach for the lamp of truth.
In times of loss we pray for the comforting light.
In times of joy we light a candle of celebration.
Spirit of Life, as we kindle this light, help us find what we need this day.
Brian Kiely (ICUU Past President and Canadian Unitarian Universalist Minister)
FRENCH:
Dans les temps sombres, nous avanons avec peine vers une faible lueur.
Dans les temps froids nous recherchons la chaleur du foyer.
Dans les temps de rpression nous tendons notre main vers la lampe de la vrit.
Dans les temps de chagrin nous nous dirigeons vers une lumire rconfortante.
Dans les temps de joie nous allumons des chandelles de clbration.
En allumant cette flamme nous marquons le dbut de nos clbrations.
Source de Vie, aujourdhui en allumant cette flamme, nous vous prions de nous
aider trouver ce dont nous avons besoin

Energien spren lassen, die wir fr den heutigen Tag brauchen.
