Katherine May, in her meditative book, Wintering, offers ways of appreciating that winter is “a season of the natural world, a respite our bodies require, and a state of mind.” The Solstice is a reminder that our lives are indeed not linear but cyclical. Recognizing our needs for replenishment, rest and retreat can occur in any season of our lives.

Drummer Aaron Walker will join us in welcoming the Winter season. He will also accompany the Women’s Choir in a rendition of “African Noel.”
