Good Santas, Sisters, and Brothers,

Today we gather in gratitude. We know in our hearts that our world is not perfect, but the Santa Arc continues.
The seasons change.
Our kitchen fills.
We remember the art of giving.  

Today’s teaching is about abundance, gift-giving, and the Seasonal Arc of the Santas.  

We offer this truth, that generosity is a year-round pursuit, and that abundance presents itself when we live in alignment with the seasons.

The Santa Arc teaches us that gift-giving is not just for Christmas, but rather, a year-round holiday!

• In Winter, we give warmth, shelter, and presence
• In Spring, we give intention, seeds, and encouragement
• In Summer, we give energy, creativity, and shared joy
• In Autumn, we give gratitude, harvest, and release

Gifts may be spiritual, they may be for others, or they may be for ourselves.
As food, patience, boundaries, or a lovely well-kept kitchen.

As a Union, we are protective of America, just as we believe every nation must protect its own citizens to maintain order, safety, and sovereignty. We believe in caring for our citizens.

We also acknowledge immigrant rights, autonomy, and humanity.
Both truths exist together.

Today’s focus, however, is natural abundance.
When order is honored, generosity flows more freely.
When safety exists, sharing becomes possible.

Without order, care and respect for nations, safety becomes an issue, and so, we cannot give where our security is jeopardized or we are not able.  Natural order & safety must come first, before natural abundance and natural giving.  

Many of you have noticed the growing body of papers, reflections, and educational documents throughout our Union pages. These are offerings and tools for insight into:

• self-respect
• modern challenges
• psychological autonomy  
• clear-vision
• personal sovereignty

They are there to support your journey. We flow through our church with gentle care and read what nourishes US.  

Santas, we want to pause and say this clearly:

We are living in an era of remarkable abundance.

Compared to say, the early 2000s, the variety, care, and accessibility of food, especially vegan food, has expanded beautifully.

We encourage you, with joy, to:

• open the Instacart app
• type “vegan” into the search bar
• explore the incredible selection

We are witnessing human evolution! How cool!  

Life is fun because we get to:

• refine our cooking skills
• discover new ingredients
• add joyful products to our carts
• learn new dishes over time

We get to experience abundance with intention.

In a Santa’s Kitchen:

• We do not keep milk products
• We do not keep meat products

While this may seem restrictive to some, this is spiritual alignment and freedom from harm for others.  

We are heart-centered, spiritual vegans.
We call ourselves Sisters, Brothers, and Santas, and share a philosophy of care, generosity, and stewardship.

The kitchen is our very sacred space. It is the heart of our Santa~friendly home. Our own personal monastery. 

What we prepare becomes what we offer.

May our kitchens be warm.
May our carts be full of love and positive intention.
May our giving be natural, not forced.
May abundance move through us with the seasons
May we protect what we love, and share what we can.
May the arc continue.

Say aloud or silently:

“By the turning of seasons and the care of my heart,
I welcome abundance that harms none.
What I receive, I share.
What I prepare, I bless.
The arc is open.
The gifts are enough.”
