Here we see a great temple of the spirit, lit by
many flames, all drawn from the same sacred fire.
The candles of a cathedral and a Shabbat table...
Kwanzaa lights and fires for the ancestors...
they are all symbols of the fire of the spirit
that burns in each of us.
Celebrate the differences
between people, do not let them divide you.
Seek to find communion with those you are in disagreement
with. Honor the fire that burns in their temple.
