Hanukkah - To Bend Light

Here are links to three prayers for your Hanukkah celebrations, with brief explanations of each. “The Season of Dedication” and “Lamps Within” will appear in my forthcoming book from CCAR Press, “This Grateful Heart.”

“The Season of Dedication” – This is the season of rededicating ourselves to holiness
“Inside the (Hanukkah) Light” – About seeing, feeling and loving the light that shines around us
“Lamps Within”- Bring the light you carry inside yourself out into the world
