My chapter did candle passes for lavaliering and engagement too. A note is slipped to the director of rituals and then they announce it at the end of chapter. We stood in a circle and a lit candle was passed all the way around once (for friendship), then it was passed again...if you had just gotten lavaliered, you blow the candle out when it gets to you. It goes around a third time for engagement.
We also did firesides...where you pass a candle around (like at sisterhood retreat) and get to say whatever you want to the chapter with no one talking or interrupting.
I loved both special events!

Then there are friends who sail together, through quiet waters and stormy weather. Helping each other through joy and through strife. And those are the kind who give meaning to life.
