BELTANE RITUAL
Monday, May 2
7:00 p.m.
in the Parish Hall
CUUPS will celebrate Beltane, the great pagan fire festival that honors the full blossoming of the Earth in renewal. In earlier times, bonfires would blaze on the hilltops, illuminating the night sky. People would dance the Maypole, and young lovers would celebrate their tryst by jumping the broom. It is still a time of rejoicing…of celebrating the return of vibrant colors, scents, lush abundance and high magick as Nature sends forth new life in all its forms, and we welcome the coming warmth and ease of Summer. Everything is new and lovely, everything holds promise, anything seems possible, and indeed…….it is.
Join us this night as we celebrate and revel in the beauty of the season and the gifts that Goddess Gaia has once again brought to us. We will follow the ritual with a simple feast of finger foods and drink. Please bring your own plates, cups, utensils, etc. We will take everything with us when we leave and also continue to follow church-directed precautions for Covid.
All are welcome.
Note: The church calendar contains some events that are not open to everyone, so that we can plan for building use. Open events are shown on the home page. Click on an event to show the full description.
