bringing back the light

Last night was the longest night of the year, the Winter Solstice. To commemorate we gathered with 600 other folks at the Cathedral of Hope for an annual ritual to bring back light to the world. Rituals on the Winter Solstice date back thousands of years, long before modern upstart holidays like Christmas.

Amy Martin puts on this show every year and it keeps on getting better. There is a sreaming video of the event here. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
