Tears in a Bottle — Ghana

These authors, TWP co-leaders, have adapted the Revd Nicole Ashwood’s unpublished Tears in a Bottle Liturgy for Trauma Transformation (with permission) for use in Ghana, for a time of prayer prior to a TWP group visit to Cape Coast Castle (July 2024). The liturgy offers prayerful, sensitive grounding and a transatlantic focus as a way of preparing the group for the psychological, spiritual, emotional, and physical impacts of visiting this historic site of such immense horror.
