One of the Tau traditions is offering blessing to anyone in our community who is undergoing a significant illness, making a big change in life, marking an anniversary or some other important milestone. At the end of the liturgy we gather in a circle around the person or persons, extend our hands toward them, and sing the Old Testament blessing -
May God bless and keep you.
May God's face shine on you.
May God be kind to you and give you peace.
Yesterday we marked Kevin and Chris' marriage anniversary with such a blessing and I was lucky enough to catch some of it in the short video below. For you readers far from us, I hope it jogs a good memory for you.
