A Blessing for Sacred Choice, Collaboration & Conversations

This blessing

Is for sacred choice

Born of loving collaboration

And conversation.

Consensus is born

When each voice is heard

And each person is affirmed.

Choose your path with care.

Remember the meaning

Inherent in each small decision.

The invitation carried by

each element of the process

laid out before us today

beckons us to relationship

with each other and with the Holy One.

May we be wise in our choosing.

Our movement

Evokes thoughts

Of Divine Presence

Inclusivity and belonging

As we accompany others

On their sacred journey

To a place where everyone

has a seat at the table and

Each person’s voice is valued.

We make a way

For God to join

The conversation

In ordinary places

That become

Sacred spaces;

Where deep, abiding presence

With one another and the Holy One

Forms our bond

born of shared values,

common goals and good will.

This blessing is

for sacred choice.
