Samhain Ritual 2014

The Veil is very thin. Let's go to visit it, shall we? It's a very Witchy Samhain Ritual and a journey to the Summerlands to reunite with the souls of our beloved dead. Ritual presented by Jason & Ari Mankey and the Oak Court through South Bay Circles. If you wish (and it's encouraged), bring a copy of a picture of a loved one (or some other reminder) who has passed on. We will be creating a portal through which the Spirits of the Dead may come across and visit for a time. Small offerings will be available for you to bless your photos and trinkets. PLEASE do not bring original photos or irreplaceable artifacts - this is a public ritual and we cannot guarantee the safety of your offerings. If possible, please label your offering with a name and phone number.

Sixteen and up only please, ritual will be too intense for children. We will be in the main sanctuary of the Palo Alto UU Church. Please bring a donation of ten dollars to help cover room expenses (no one will be turned away for lack of funds). Gather starts at 7:30 pm, and the ritual promptly at 8:00 pm. There will be a desert and snack bar after the ritual, so please bring a desert item, so fruit, or a snack.
