What we’re about
Welcome to Weavers of the Web, where we seek to create a space for the Lansing pagan community to learn from and connect with each other. Our aim is to provide the connection and social support that other mainstream faiths get from their churches, so that none need ever be alone.
Our regular event calendar includes discussion/teaching groups, Sabbat rituals, game and craft nights, psychic fairs, festivals and more. All levels and paths are welcome. Some events are donation-based, while others have a nominal fee. All funds go toward our operating expenses and our goal of purchasing property for a permanent Lansing pagan community temple.
During this time of social distancing, we are working on a variety of online options to keep our community connected and cared for. Our Wednesday night discussion groups are on Zoom with livestreaming on YouTube and recordings and handouts available to Patreon subscribers. We have informal social time before and after these events. Regular rituals are available in SecondLife on Sacred Cauldron, home of the Woolston-Steen Theological Seminary where our HPs Solinox Silverstar teaches. You can also join us on our Discord server for general community chat.
We are continually looking to improve our online offerings. If there's something you'd like to see, just let us know.

Join us in-person or on Zoom as we celebrate the First Harvest with our Lammas ritual. We will be at the Fenner Center scout campground from 4pm until 9 pm this year. Bring sunscreen and bug repellant, outdoor toys and games, chairs, snacks and drinks, anything you need to enjoy a evening in the woods with friends and family.
We also ask everyone to bring nonperishable food donations for the Pagans In Need food pantry. It’s harvest season, so let’s restock the pantry with some of that bounty! We’ll have Baldr out in the field again this year. Last year, we got the donation pile about up to Baldr’s knees. Can we bury him this year? Only YOU can help find out!
At 4pm, we are proud to present our local Lammas Monologues and invocation auditions. Students at the Woolston-Steen Theological Seminary and WISE-ATC initiatory students are required every year to invoke a deity and present their message. This is a great opportunity to meet some deities and hear from them firsthand, as well as supporting our clergy-in-training who spend weeks preparing for you. Community members who are not students are also invited to present invocations if they would like to be considered for invocation roles in our rituals over the next year.
Raffle tickets will go on sale at 4 when the gates open and monologues begin. Circle will be cast at 5pm, or when the monologues are complete. Our main ritual will also be available by YouTube livestream and Patreon, as usual, so everybody can enjoy the ritual in whichever manner calls to them best. As a friendly reminder, all observers of WISE-tradition rituals are asked to be participants within the circle, and all are welcome.
For the best online experience, we recommend setting up your own ritual space at home where you plan to be during the ritual. You may want candles, incense, God and Goddess representations, elemental tools, or anything else you have available for a working sacred space. This is optional, but will definitely help you get into the mood. Don’t forget your Cakes and Ale, and have your own feast ready if you’d like to join in after ritual. Get some corn husks and get them soaking earlier in the day if you’d like to make your corn dolly along with us.
After ritual, we will break bread together. Bring your own food for our shared feast; you may bring extra to share if you like. Iced tea and water will be available.
Attendance to our sabbat rituals is always free! Donations help to cover the cost of our space and materials as well as help grow our Temple fund. You can help out by bringing cash, donating via PayPal, or become a subscribing member through Patreon. Circle cast will be at 5:00pm, so please arrive early.
As is our tradition, we will be having a teacup raffle with donated items. If you have any items at home that are ready to bring joy to a new home, please consider bringing them to donate to the raffle. Tickets will go on sale at the beginning of the day, and the drawing will be around 7:30pm. Online attendees are welcome to participate; a video tour of the raffle table will be given after ritual, and online tickets may be purchased via Paypal donation.
The Fenner Center scout campground is accessed via a hard-to-see driveway on Mount Hope just east of the main entrance; we will have signs at the street. You can park just inside the gate and hike down to the site, or those with handicapped permits are welcome to park with care in the field. Please arrive dressed and equipped appropriately for the weather; we cannot guarantee socially-distanced shelter in the event of rain. Fresh water and a pit toilet are available on site. The ground onsite is grass that is thick and mowed with some uneven terrain. Limited benches are available; we recommend bringing your own chairs if you expect to need seating.
SEVERE WEATHER PLANS: We will move this event to the store at Keys To Manifestation if a severe weather alert is issued or if winds exceed 20 mph. As long as it stays dry or is just raining, we will be at the campground. Please be careful, and plan for getting wet or being chilly this time of year! - WSTS Lammas RitualLink visible for attendees
The Senior class of Woolston-Steen Theological Seminary invites you to celebrate Lammas online!
At this time of the First Harvest, we will look at the sacrifices that have been made to bring us to where we are and give thanks to all who helped us along the way. Bring a pen and paper (or other flammable offerings) If you wish, you may use a safe receptacle to burn your offerings during ritual, or you may take your offerings to a safer place to burn them after the ritual is complete. You will also want food and drink so you can join us in cakes and ale.

Click here to join the Zoom call.
Our Wednesday night groups start at 6:00pm for some social time. At 6:30, we go live on YouTube for our main event. Once we finish up with our formal activities and stop streaming, we usually keep the Zoom call going a bit for more social time as folks head out.
Can’t make it live? Secure recordings of our discussions are available to Patreon subscribers at the Bobbin level and above, and ritual recordings are available at the Balanced level and above.
Weaving the Web is our very own discussion series, designed not only to provide a basic introduction to our own WISE-ATC beliefs and practices but also to encourage sharing of information between traditions. Our cycle of 52 topics returns each year, so if you miss one, you can always catch it next year.
For ritual nights, if you are joining us from home be sure to set up your ritual space at home with candles, incense, and any other sacred tools or music.
