Our next beginning Pagan class is forming soon, and we are currently accepting applications for that class. The 13 lessons of the Pagan class take place once a week over a period of several months. This study group meets at our private Covenstead, and acceptance into the Pagan class does not obligate you to be a member of our Grove. While membership in the Grove is not guaranteed or required to participate in the Pagan class, it gives everyone an opportunity to get to know each other and the basics of the Craft. We are extremely selectivein choosing candidate for further advanced study. We look forward to the opportunity to get to know each of you and for you to know us. If you would like more information, please contact us. Merry Meet, Merry Part, and Merry Meet Again! --The Grove of Phoenix Rising-- |
