This Sunday invites reflection on the sacred work of transformation — personal, cultural, and planetary. Drawing inspiration from Vanessa Machado de Oliveira’s Hospicing Modernity and Outgrowing Modernity, the service explores how endings can be acts of care: tending to what must pass so that new ways of being may take root. Thus, we honor the grief and grace of transition, embracing the possibility that every ending carries the seed of renewal.
