September 8, 2007 - Welcome to the Hearth

We kick off a new year of Beans, Leave & Deities with a Blessing of the Hearth ritual. During this rite we consecrate the hearth that is set up for each coffee talk. We light the hearth flame anew and invite you to take a bit of the flame home with you. Food and socializing to follow.

October 13, 2007 - Chants

One of our most popular chats (singings) last year. Learn some popular pagan chants and bring some new chants to share. Folks are welcome to bring drums and other instruments to accompany the chanting.
