Solstice Bonfire

Service Description

🌚✨ Winter Solstice Bonfire: Release, Remember, Renew Saturday, December 20 • 3:30–5:30 p.m. At Jessica’s home — address sent upon registration Donation-based • All are welcome As the longest night of the year gathers around us, we’ll come together in community to honor the turning of the season — a gentle pause between what has been and what is beginning to unfold. We’ll begin indoors with a simple writing practice: a chance to name the good, the hard, and the holy-messy moments of the past year. You’ll be invited to share, if you wish, and then we’ll carry our words — our stories, our hopes, our offerings — out to the fire. Around the bonfire, we’ll cast our pages into the flames, letting them rise as smoke and prayer. We’ll feed the fire with fragrant gifts — cinnamon, star anise, and whatever you feel moved to bring — offering it all to the unseen help that quietly guides us. The burning becomes our ritual of release, clarity, and renewal. There will be singing. There will be hot chai. There will be warmth, welcome, and winter magic. What to bring: • A warm blanket (chairs will be provided around the fire) • Anything small you’d like to offer to the flames • An open heart for release and connection Paper and pens will be provided. This gathering is donation-based. Offer what feels right and possible — or simply come. Your presence is a gift in itself. Let’s welcome the return of the light together, one spark at a time.
