Hello, everyone, I just want to take a moment to thank all of our members, participants, and donors for your support this year! What an eventful year for us! We feel the blessing of new priestesses, new fundraising ideas (a yard sale!) and creative rituals and groups. Special thanks to our Faery Godmothers/Member Donors for your ongoing support! I want to remind you that you can still donate in 2024 (just visit the Donate button at the bottom of our website-- keep scrolling, it's way down there!). And We still have lots of We'Moon datebooks, wall calendars, Tarot decks, and Last Wild Witch children's books, too. You can purchase those at the Jan. 18 Croning ritual or email me to arrange a rendezvous. We are not able to ship those due to the expense, but want to make sure everyone gets them who wants them. 2025 is shaping up to be a great year! The PaganFaire ritual theme has just been decided: "Waters of the World"! PaganFaire day, Sat. Mar. 22, is World Water Day. Start thinking about water deities and beings, this will be a fun and meaningful Spring Equinox Ritual! We are expecting to have some new exciting online classes, and we'll start the year with a Croning ceremony Jan. 18. Yule/Festival of Lights 2025 will be our 40th anniversary! Again, thank you for your generosity! SisterSpirit is entirely supported by your donations, so it's up to all of us to make sure she thrives in the future. May the Goddess bless you all, and remember, "what you do comes back to you threefold." Frodo
