12-07 Festival of Lights

17th Annual Festival of Lights ServiceUWS candles

Sunday, December 7th, 2014, 1:30 pm

Many religions use light — inner and outer — to symbolize their prayers and hopes for what is right with the world, especially at this holiday season. Representatives from the Baha’i, Buddhist, Christian, Divine Feminine, Indigenous, Hindu, Jewish, Moslem, Sufi and Zoroastrian traditions will share with us their faith, their passion and their creativity in sacred words, poetry, chants, songs and music.

There will be plenty of light to go around. We light a candle for each of the religions represented, as well as one candle to symbolize our unity, mutual support, and hopes and prayers for world peace.  Please join us for this inspiring and festive interspiritual celebration!

@ LucSculpture, 663 Greenwood Avenue, just north of Danforth.
