Creator, Great Spirit,
You who breathe life into the wind and carry our songs on the wings of eagles,
We gather in this sacred circle today,
To honor the call you have placed on this servant’s heart.

We give thanks for the waters that cleanse,
For the fire that purifies,
For the earth that grounds our journey,
And for the breath of life that stirs within all living beings.

Today, we commit to healing—
Healing of self, of spirit, of the people, and of the land.
Let these hands be instruments of peace.
Let this voice carry truth with gentleness.
Let this heart remain open—
To listen, to learn, to love without fear.

May this ordination not be an end, but a beginning—
A sacred vow to walk gently and firmly,
To lift others with humility,
And to restore what has been broken,
With courage, prayer, and community.

We call upon the ancestors who have gone before,
And the children yet to come.
Let their wisdom and dreams be our guideposts.
We honor the circle—no one above, no one below—
Only the unity of purpose,
And the promise of healing through service.

Creator, walk with this one now—
As a vessel of light,
A steward of truth,
A healer in your name.

So may it be.
