Pagan and Witches Community Circle

As a Pagan Witch, I just don't go down to the local church, to learn and worship

Some Pagans choose to practice solitary and some prefer a circle, or coven. I do a mixture, but really enjoy the social aspect of a circle or coven. I also learn best by seeing and doing, more then just reading it in a book.

Here in the greater Las Vegas area, there is a rather large Pagan Community. Many great groups to pick from and join, one or all of them. I'm a member of the Las Vegas Pagan and Witches Community Circle.

This group has gone through a few names, but was founded in October 2002, online at MeetUp.com. We still use the Meetup system, but as a group we grown and expanded beyond just the site.

I joined in March of this year, but didn't go to my first event, Beltane, til May 1st. Lily is the leader,and High Priestess of the group. Lily is a wonderful person, so easy to talk with, and learn from. Through my experiences, I have come to trust Lily to guide my spiritual growth, or any part of my magickal or mundane life.

Here is what Lily wrote as a description of the group, "This is a place for pagans, witches and other like-minded individuals of all paths to gather together to worship, fellowship, network and celebrate our spirituality and diversity in perfect love and perfect trust. We welcome all, wherever you may be on your journey, whether seeking, experienced or somewhere in between. We honor the Lord and the Lady, the Divine within and without, and celebrate each turning of the wheel. Come join our circle of friends."

I'm one of the somewhere in the middle people. I have most of the basics down, but still much to learn, maybe more then just this life time. I try and be as helpful as I can, setting up, taking down, and running for ice, firewood, or anything that might be needed. I also try to bring interesting and different foods for the pot lucks. Many in the group are vegetarians, so I try to mix it up so that everyone has something they can have and enjoy.

The Circle has and offers:
Classes for all levels
Sabbat Rituals
Chanting & Drum Circle
Sunday Services
Camping & Day Trips
Mead & Mead Making
Chance to know and attend events hosted by others in Pagan Community
Message Board & Calender of Events through Meetup.com
Online Store
and Support, Fellowship, and Networking




The above picture is of Lily and I at Samhain. Lily is many things to me: A close friend, spiritual leader, mother, teacher, medical advisor, and therapist. We have had many long, deep conversations well into the morning hours after a event. I have grown and learned from each one.

My mother has talked to Lily on the phone, and just love her. I don't need it, but nice to have my parents blessing, and know they think I'm in the right place. Both my parents have shown an interest in my faith, and wanting to learn more about it.

We, as The Las Vegas Pagan and Witches Community Circle, have recently opened an online store. The goal of this store is to raise money to help off set the cost of putting on and hosting all our events. There are small fees for some events so we also hope to get some funds to help members who truly can't afford an event, but want to attend. Here is the link to our store: http://astore.amazon.com/pagaandwitcco-20

If you are moving or visiting the Las Vegas valley, please stop by our Meetup.com site, and see if you can attend an event. Here is the link: http://www.meetup.com/paganandwitchescommunitycircle

This group has been a blessing to me and help me grow stronger in my Magickal and Mundane life. I thank the Goddess for directing me to this group. I have gained some great friends from within the group.

I look forward and very excited about each Sabbat, and any event as it is posted . I try to attend as many as I can. I love and feed off the wonderful energy I feel, and these events are often the highlight of the week for me.


Love & Light,
Blessed Be )O(
