We light our chalice for the goal of world peace, liberty and justice for all.

 

We can never make the world safe by fighting. Every nation must learn that the people of all nations are children of the divine, and must share the wealth of the world. You may say this is impractical, can never be accomplished, But it is the work we are called to do. Sometime, somehow, somewhere, we must ever teach this great lesson. Olympia Brown (1st woman ordained a minister; by the Universalists, in 1853), adapted
