This liturgy features spoken responses, poetry, music, and rituals that invite participation like: holding a rock and feeling the weight of grief, writing down our laments, pouring out water to honor our sorrows (similar to Jacob pouring out a drink offering in Genesis 35), and even creating bead bracelets to remember the experience.
