This ceremony is a way to enter the New Year with a guiding idea.

White Stone Ritual-  developed by Unity ministers Gay & the late David Williamson
comes from a verse found in the Book of Revelation, Chapter 2:17:

“Let anyone who has an ear listen to what the Spirit is saying …
I will give some of the hidden manna, and I will give a white stone,
and on the white stone is written a new name that no one knows
except the one who receives it.”

The author of Lessons in Truth,
Dr. H. Emilie Cady says this: “The White Stone Ceremony gives us the opportunity to choose a new secret
spiritual name for ourselves, a name that resonates with qualities we wish to develop.
This is a great follow-up for the “Burning Bowl” last Sunday.
We get to name what it is we want to bring into our life.”
