ABOUT THE BURNING BOWL
You have control over what you carry into the new year. Just as important, you can decide what you want to leave behind.
The annual Unity Burning Bowl Ceremony is an opportunity to let go of what no longer serves you to make space for new beginnings. With this release, you will step into the realm of possibility and become ready to experience your unlimited good.
What Is a Burning Bowl Ceremony?
The goal of the burning bowl ritual is to make space for new beginnings. It can be done at any place, at home alone or in a gathering with others.
Each January, Unity of Wichita invites all to join in a nondenominational burning bowl ceremony as an alternative to setting resolutions for the new year. Anyone can submit a release in advance via email: info@unityofwichita.org or DM. Submissions will be burned together during the in person and livestreamed event Sunday morning.
“Letting Go Gives Us Freedom
For centuries, indigenous groups used smoke as a symbol of their thoughts and prayers rising to the Great Spirit. Engaged couples have also released the past in a burning bowl before taking their vows.
Whatever the circumstances, the purpose of the ceremony is to shift consciousness. It’s about becoming still, naming what you want to release, and letting it go.
When we let go and let God, we experience freedom. Letting go opens us to the power of inspiration, insight, wisdom, and love.”

ABOUT THE WHITE STONE
The White Stone Ceremony has roots in ancient biblical tradition, inspired by Revelation 2:17, where receiving a white stone symbolizes a fresh start and a new identity. In Roman times, white stones were given as tokens of freedom to those released from bondage.
Today, this ceremony remains deeply relevant as a way to embrace personal renewal, inviting reflection, clarity, and the setting of a meaningful intention or “word” for the year ahead.
In a fast-paced world, it offers a grounding ritual to reconnect with inner guidance and align with purpose and possibility.
Join us for the White Stone Ceremony at Unity of Wichita—a beautiful opportunity to set your intentions for the year ahead.
During this special service, you’ll reflect, release, and embrace your personal word or affirmation for 2025, symbolizing a fresh start and renewed purpose.
We can’t wait to share this meaningful moment with you.
All are welcome!
Come, and begin the year with clarity and inspiration.
Join us on Sunday morning at 10 AM in person at Unity of Wichita, or on the live stream via Youtube or Facebook.
