![]() ![]() For religious couples, the first communion taken together as husband and wife is a sentimental and sacred activity. Some couples choose to take communion along with the rest of their guests. The ritual is comprised of the bride and groom consuming bread and wine (or grape juice) with their officiant leading them. Taking communion is a spiritual practice performed by Christians and Catholics that honors the last supper of Jesus Christ. The final product makes for a beautiful display in your home to fondly remember for years to come.Ĭouples often choose to incorporate a spiritual ritual into their wedding ceremony. The sand ceremony is a sincere way to incorporate your kids into your wedding to demonstrate the union of two families. The sands of choice can have a personal significance of where they come from or match colors significant to the couple. ![]() Each person pours their sand into the container taking turns or blending the sand together symbolizing a new union. The sand ceremony is similar to the unity candle ceremony with two sands representing the bride and groom and a larger glass container. This classic unity ceremony can also be highly personalized with the inclusion of family. Traditionally, the couple’s candles are lit by the parents of the bride and groom. Once the unity candle is lit, the couple extinguishes their candles, symbolizing leaving behind their past as singles. The couple lights light the larger unity candle with their smaller individual ones at the same time, representing their marriage. Three candles are placed on a table representing the bride and groom and their union. One of the most common unity ceremony ideas is to hold a unity candle ceremony. These are just six unity ceremony ideas for you to consider including at your wedding: A meaningful unity ceremony symbolizes the promise you make to your spouse and the love you have for each other. These ceremonies are also effortless ways to personalize and spark joy at your wedding. While they don’t have to hold deep personal significance, unity ceremonies can also demonstrate religious or cultural traditions. Unity ceremonies are rituals that symbolize the joining of two lives uniting together until death do you part. Your officiant or wedding planner might suggest adding a unity ceremony to perform with your partner. Part of planning a wedding is deciding how to conduct your wedding ceremony. I found that some of the wording and old time "values" associated with the coin ceremony was a tad bit misogynistic so I reworded/omitted some things that my husband and I didn't agree with.6 Sentimental Unity Ceremony Ideas for Your Wedding The Heart box also connects magnetically so it's easy to disassemble like so: My husband and I ended up doing 2 kinds of unity ceremonies, one was a Hispanic tradition of gold coins (las arras) where each coin represents a wish upon the life we want to sow together and then placed into a velvet lined heart shaped container.Īnd we also did one where after we read our vows, we folded them up and placed them and the coins in a heart shaped box, placed that box in a heart shaped cage, and locked it noting that every year on our anniversary from that day on we would open it and reread our vows that we took to one another and remember the bond of love and devotion that we share forever that was made public on our wedding day. ![]()

![]() ![]() “I’m a lifer at the library,” said Gomes. This summer marks 24 years of working at the Brooklyn Public Library. His mother, concerned about his after-school activities, requested that he volunteer at the Sunset Park Library in his neighborhood. His family emigrated from the Cape Verde Islands when he was a child. Reporter The initiative called Books Unbanned will allow anyone ages 13 to 21 to get a free eCard that will give them access to the library’s virtual collection of 350,000 eBooks and 200,000 audiobooks. But one library system has announced a program to challenge the tide of book bannings. Gomes, who holds a psychology degree from CCNY, started working at the library when he was 15. A recent survey from Pen America found that more than a thousand titles have been banned from various school districts since July, books like 'The Bluest Eye' by Toni Morrison and the memoir Genderqueer by Maia Kobabe. Also, the Librarians of Tomorrow project has teens shadowing librarians and learning the workings of a library. Today’s Teens Tomorrow’s Techies, which has 80 teens each year, help seniors with computer classes and conducts tech workshops with teens. “They came up with the hashtag #BooksUnbanned to help young people share their stories on social media when they applied for a card, and that became the project’s official name,” said Gomes.Īt BPL, he heads two internship programs. They have formed Intellectual Freedom Teen Council, a zoom group that meets one to two times a month with teens from New York and around the country to discuss social justice. The teens in Books Unbanned are diversity advocates. Then we would look at the story and give them a digital library card. “They would write stories to BPL and tell us about their experiences. “The teens would reach out to us and tell their experiences ranging from whether their English teacher told them they are not going to read that book in class or that they are unable to go to the library and take the book out,” said Gomes. Teens who identified as that cannot get books to learn about themselves.”īooks Unbanned welcomes all teens. Specifically, they target people of color, Jewish, and LGBTQ+. Their classroom and the public library are not letting them check out books they are interested in reading. “The teens are the ones that are dealing with this crisis. They don’t see that type of representation, and there’s limited material because of this awful banning across the country. “Black teens want to see more Black authors who write about them. “Teens are looking for representation,” he told Our Time Press. As a Black librarian, he is sensitive to the needs of Black teen readers. Scott Simon gets an update from Nick Higgins, chief librarian of the Brooklyn Public Library, on the Books Unbanned initiative. Jackson Gomes, Young Adult Internship Coordinator at Brooklyn Public Library, is part of a team of five librarians that launched Books Unbanned. However, most cards have been issued to teens in Texas, Florida, California, Pennsylvania, and North Carolina. BPL is proud to celebrate Seattle Public Librarys Books Unbanned as a crucial partner in defending and expanding the freedom to read. Since launching in April 2022, more than 6,000 teens have applied for the card from all 50 states. This virtual program allows nationwide young adults ages 13 to 21 to apply for a free eCard from BPL, unlocking access to the library’s extensive collection of half a million eBooks and audiobooks. The Brooklyn Public Library (BPL) has launched Books Unbanned to reach out to teens living in banned-book communities. Still, this story has been on the top banned books list every year since it was published in 2017.įor Black teens living in communities around the US where books about racism and LGBTQA+ issues are banned from libraries and schools, “The Hate U Give” is the top requested book. Even if you feel all alone, you have that book to read, to know that someone else is out there.“The Hate U Give,” a young adult novel by Angie Thomas that tells the story of a Black teen who witnesses a police shooting and killing of her unarmed best friend, is a best-selling novel and award-winning movie. It’s something you can go back to, even when no one knows about your situation. ![]() “Our age group goes through traumatic experiences, and having books is like having a support system. “It made me realize that most parents want to protect their children - and that’s OK - but it’s not OK to stop someone from learning,” she continued. It’s strange to have a system to take away something that you love or care for.” When I learned that those books were being challenged, it really upset me. “Those are heavily challenged books throughout the nation because The Handmaid’s Tale talks about a very realistic dystopia that could happen in the future, and Speak, on the other hand, talks about sexual abuse and trauma. “I really love The Handmaid’s Tale by Margaret Atwood and Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson,” Raisa shared. 34 Books That Make LGBTQ+ Teens Feel Seen. ![]() ![]() ![]() The team works with care staff and family to support the client with stabilization.

![]() ![]() ![]() Sean Connery would have been woefully out of place – his stint in the similarly wacky Diamonds Are Forever at the onset of the 70s saw his more serious James Bond seem awkward and bored. It climaxed in an underground lair showdown that saw the filmmakers genuinely believe audiences wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between a man and a gigantic balloon.īut try, just for a second, to imagine anybody else in the lead role. In Live and Let Die, his bizarrely brilliant debut, Bond went up against a voodoo cult and a drug-dealing corrupt politician, not to mention a dude with a metal claw for a hand. Or driving around a metal crocodile.Ĥ0-odd years on, that’s what makes his 007 iconic and his 007 movies fun to watch – because, let’s face it, there are tons of problems elsewhere. Even if that trick was dressing up as a clown. In his hands, the suave secret agent became a playboy extraordinaire, a joker with just the right trick up his sleeve. That was the weapon that made his 007 so invincible. He was the kind of man who thought it fun to correct a regional newspaper’s report of him eating a Scotch egg ( he had the ham hock terrine) on Twitter, or mock his own dubiously dated filmography. That sense of humour continued all the way through his life: outside of 007, Roger was a hilarious figure, never arrogant in his wit, but always self-deprecating, always self-aware and always unselfish. But Roger brought with him an enthusiasm, energy and sense of humour that seemed to belong to a man decades younger. He had miles on the clock in every department – even though he never drove an Aston Martin as James Bond, Moore had already been behind the wheel of a DB5 in The Persuaders! and The Cannonball Run. Today, the thought of the oldest Bond to date seducing ‘Bond girls’ is a rather creepy one, especially when he turned in his last performance in A View to Kill at the age of 58. And the fact that The Saint began in 1962, and that he would be 45 by the time he finally became Bond in 1973? Well, that was just the way things were. The fact that he was already famous as spy Simon Templar in The Saint was a bonus. In the late 1960s, when Sean Connery intimated that he would be stepping down from the role, Moore was in the frame, partly thanks to his sharp blue eyes, excellent good looks (demonstrated in a modelling career) and cool charisma. Moore had been a contender for the role for years before he finally donned that tux – or, in his case, safari suit. Without Roger Moore, we wouldn’t have 007 today. But Roger Moore wasn’t just the Silly Bond: he was the man with the golden eyebrows, the Bond that 007 needed to be. Who was so old it was disturbing to see him suck the face off young women at the beginning and end – and during most of the middle – of every adventure. Who went out on a mission in a submarine shaped like a crocodile. Roger Moore? Well, he was the one who dressed up as a clown. And GoldenEye, Casino Royale, Licence to Kill and Skyfall are all competing for a close second. In 2017, in the days after Roger Moore passed away, Goldfinger remains the greatest Bond film of all time. He’s not even my Bond: I met Bond in the days of Pierce Brosnan, with a fondness for watching back Sean Connery’s outings on DVD. ![]() |
