We chose to schedule it before Class and Open Circle on the 2nd as most everyone should be available. If you plan to assist on the day of the event, it would be great if you could make this meeting! We hope to see you there! Blessed Be!

Class and Open Circle
Wheel of the Year
6pm at the UU Church of Haverhill
The Wheel of the Year is a continuing cycle of life, death and rebirth. Thus the Wheel reflects both the natural passage of life in the world and the revealing of connections with the greater world. By realizing how all are connected to the turning of the seasons we come to a deeper understanding of the ways we are connected to the God and Goddess. When they celebrate seasonal rites, Wiccans attempt to unite the essential identity that underlies all things.
Class starts at 6PM followed by Open Circle

Pagan Pizza Party!
LaFesta Brick & Brew Pizza
300 Central Ave, Dover, NH
This is a regular event hosted by Dee from the PaganFM radio station which occurs every 2nd Thursday of each month. We get pizza, drinks, and just have a great time talking and meeting new and like minded people in a very unofficial setting. It is a great time and all are invited to attend. Strongly suggested that you get there early to get a seat!
There is no cost to attend, but donations toward the cost of the pizza Dee buys are greatly appreciated if you are able. If not, it's not a problem. Any drinks you may want are not included in this though.
