December twenty-fourth, The Flaming Chalice (1965). The Unitarian Service Committee adopted the flaming chalice as their logo in 1941. Years later, in 1965, at the West Shore Church in Cleveland, Ohio, the youth led a Christmas service opened by ritually lighting a chalice. This is the first time the chalice was used in this way except for in children’s classes and youth gatherings where the practice began. —the Rev. R. Y. Roberts
