“Winter Solstice Celebration,” Harmonia & Friends, Dec 21, 2025

Описание: We celebrated the return of the light at the Winter Solstice of 2025.

The Westwood Community has been hosting Winter Solstice celebrations since 1987, and this year we once again gathered to honour Yule, both in person and online via Zoom.

The evening was filled with music, candlelight, ritual, and joyful celebration. We shared food and drink and kindled a sacred fire outdoors.

As in previous years, Westwood invited donations in support of a designated organization. This year’s Solstice recipient was Edmonton Water Warriors (waterwarriorsyeg.com).

Speakers & Service Leaders: Harmonia & Friends
Musicians: Harmonia with Rebecca & Julie Forbes
Techs: Bill Lee, Julie Phillips, Lorian Kennedy

Where do you turn for strength, wisdom, comfort, or to be challenged? What inspires you to action or cautions you to re-think your choices? What helps you discern your direction in life? Sustains you in a crisis? Join us for an informal Sunday morning that invites you into reflection and into community.
