As the year comes to an end, the days have grown shorter and the nights have grown longer. Tonight we remember the ancient days of humanity's past, and sing of the future we might hope for. There is uncertainty in both directions, and it will take courage to act under uncertainty. We cannot know for sure what has been, and we cannot say what the future will be. There is this, however:

Tomorrow will be brighter than today.

The Solstice celebration will be on December 27th. Doors open at 6:30; event starts at 7:00. Please arrive on time to avoid disrupting the somber and more serious parts of the program. RSVPs are appreciated so we can plan appropriately.

If you have never been to a Secular Solstice in this style before, you should expect alternating speeches and songs, social pressure to join in the singing, and discussion of death in the speeches.

This year we're at Connexion, about a half mile from Sullivan Square Station.
