May our minds be clear.

(prayer hands at head)

Our hearts open.

(hands opening at heart level)

Our spirits free.
(little fingers linked with back of hands facing the chest like a butterfly on either side of the heart,
then extending out in a big circle)

As we journey home.

(hands over belly)

And serve in love.

(hands reaching out)

Cielle Tewksbury (1938-2004) created this ritual.
