Spirit of Change, God/dess of Liminality,
Be with us in this transitional time.
Remind us of the moments of joy, even when the present may be cloudy.

Blessed Be, Amen, Ashe

And may we stay open to the joy of hearing a first time preacher and letting our hearts and circles of care open to all who dare to share their tentative and vulnerable entry into this profession.
