place on the evening of the 21st of December and features music, readings, singing, and lighting our Solstice Tree.

 

Troll the ancient Yuletide carol!

In person only

Celebrate the seasons change! For centuries, people have celebrated the shift of the winter solstice. Now our Northern hemisphere is tilted farthest away from the Sun. The nights are longest, days are shortest, and the sunlight is weak. Over the world, many groups from many different faith traditions observe this time when the power of the dark feels at its fullest. At the UU Fellowship of Boca Raton, we host a Winter Solstice Celebration: a special service of song and stories and stillness to create a sacred space. Please join us for a night of music and meditation, our rite into the darkness to bring forth the gifts of the Light. In the midst of winter, come discover within what Albert Camus described as “an invincible summer.”
