Bouncing Back: Handling the Curve Balls of Life February 15, 2026 Rev. Rosemary Morrison Service Leader: Jeff Bisanz Chimes Welcome and Announcements Land Acknowledgement Prelude Chalice Lighting Joy and Power That Grows by Jami Yandle We light this chalice for the quiet truths we carry, and for the futures we’re brave enough to write. In this circle, we honor the courage it takes to live openly, the softness that sustains us, and the joy and power that grow when we gather. As the chalice glows may we feel steadiness rise in us. May we trust that our becoming— messy, radiant, unfolding—wholly belongs to us. By Jami Yandle Hymn 188 Come, Come, Whoever You Are.
