Blessing of the Ballots

  • by

As Christians, we are ordinary people living in not so ordinary times. And as always, we are called to extraordinary action.

Voting is one such action, particularly when there are many obstacles to voting intentionally placed in the paths of many people, especially people of color. This brief ritual is one of blessing, but also of confession for the many injustices that lead to people becoming disenfranchised.

The ritual is available as a PDF document. You may view a video of this section of the October 18, 2020, worship service.
