Liturgy of the Light

Overview
The "Liturgy of the Light" is the title of the services hosted by The Holy See in order to better serve its mission and spread the Light to the world. It consists of and opening and closing prayer, sometimes a reading from Sacred Scripture and a sermon on a subject in relation to the teachings of the Light. Normally, these services last about a half an hour and then those with questions may come and speak privately with the celebrant following the service's conclusion. Unlike most sermons, the Liturgy of the Light provides a program ((GHI)) to all who attend. ((The program allows those present to hear music and stand/sit at the correct times)) The services follow the prayers outlined in The Liturgy. It also should be noted that the "Liturgy of the Light" sometimes may occur in a location topical to the sermon instead of the normal service

A Prayer to the Light
''Praise be the Light!  May it's rays shine brightly in the darkest corners of Azeroth.  May it's warmth heat the hearts of all. May it melt the will of evil and may it forever be granted home in every house throughout the world. May we, the followers of the Light, stay ever vigilant of our faith and true to what we believe.'' And, may the Light be our only guide.'' ''Amen

Other Plans
Currently there are plans for additional events attached to the Liturgy

The sermon given on August 9, 27 connected with the procession and focused on "The Importance of Community".
