I belong to a group that I wanted to tell you about, the Pagan Unity Campaign. Our goals are simple, to unite the Pagan community. 

 The mission of the Pagan Unity Campaign (PUC) is to unify the many diverse branches of Paganism in America.
We want all Pagans to come together under the banner of Freedom.
Nothing would be more unifying than if we could all feel safe enough to emerge from the social darkness of the broom closet, free of the oppressive chains of fear and hate.

For more info you can contact me or the main PUC site at http://www.paganunitycampaign.org/

This was posted in one of the groups I belong to and I wanted to pass it on.

An Open Letter To A Witch

I do not know what tradition you follow. That does not matter. Indeed, for
all I know, you may not follow any of the traditions. You may be one of
those that, for whatever reason, must worship by "feel' rather than through
any formal coven training or participation.
But whoever you are, and however you worship, all that matters to me is that
you hold true to the Goddess and the God. My purpose in writing this letter
is to enjoin your aid in destroying that which cripples our Craft.
Dissension is the disease. It is not a cancer, for it can be cured; and, as
with most herbal cures, the best treatment is that administered internally.
Friend, help spread the Brotherhood and Sisterhood of the Craft. Do not seek
to establish a scale of Wicca purism, (for no two Witches will ever agree on
the relative positions on the scale of even their own tradition.)
There is no one religion for all people, and THERE IS NO ONE TRADITION FOR
ALL WITCHES! Let this be understood, and accepted. Choose your own path and
let your neighbor choose his or hers. Remember the primary tenet: "AN YE
HARM NONE, DO AS YE WILL." Yet never forget:"An ye harm none..." If your
path leads to sex rites, to homosexuality, to phallic-initiation... Do not
put it forward as "THE WICCAN WAY". It is only A Wiccan way, one of MANY.
And by the same token, if a path so presented is not your way, do not decry
it simply because it is not your way. Who are you to say another is wrong,
so long as it harms none. Strive for honesty, friend.
Do not make false Craft claims, whether of position, heredity, lineage, or
whatever.
If you have a quarrel with someone, seek out the one you disagree with,
rather than utilize perhaps unreliable intermediaries. Do not spread unfound
rumors and question those who do so. News of battle makes more exciting
reading than news of peace.
Why, then, provide battle news for publication when the serenity of the
Craft is what we should be showing? We have come a long way, friend, in a
few short years. Let us move along our chosen paths till we emerge- as we
will- accepted and respected by ALL as a religion in our own right. Help us
bring an end to washing our dirty linen in public. There will always be
disagreements. There will always be those who cannot tolerate others, but
they are in the minority and so they should remain, if you wish. But do not
deny them their right to those differences.
Friend, we are Children of the Universe, and Children of the Goddess and the
God. Let us remember that, and live in Peace.
Blesses Be, and Merry Part!

I thought I'd show you some of my favorite Pagan images.

Merry Meet everyone!

I'm new here to Covenspace, I just learned about it from Wicked Lil Witch in the Pagan's Night Out group from Yahoo.  I'm looking forward to meeting lots of you!

I work in Pagan activism in PA as the State Chair of the Pagan Unity Campaign and I'm active in several local Pagan groups in my area.

I have 2 children, both grown and married, and I'm expecting my first grandchild in Sept.

I'm so thrilled to find a place geared toward us and our interests, so send me a message and let's get to know each other!
