This past winter was very hard on our little church, and as such we have incurred some major expenses due to damages to the property and whatnot.
We would like to remind anyone that we are always open to acceptiong donations to help offset some of these expenses.
Monetery donations can be sent to our mailing address, which is:
Church of Eternal Light
PO Box 1331
Bristol, CT 06010
Thank you in advance to all who wish to send aid.
Our adults-only Samhain Ritual will be held on Saturday October 31st.
This event is 18+.
There is no cost to attend this event.
Ritual begins promptly at 8:00 pm. Please try to arrive early to park and get situated, as this is our most attended event of the year. If you cannot find a space in our lot, you may park on the grass strips bordering the lot or on the adjacent street. Just be considerate of our neighbors’ lawns and driveways.
You may dress in any manner that you wish, whether it be garb, costume, or regular clothes. Just make sure to dress warmly because we will be outdoors, no matter the weather conditions.
There is no potluck after this particular ritual, but there will be music, bonfire, some light refreshments and camaraderie.
A few reminders:
No photography is permitted on church grounds without expressed consent of the CEL Executive Board, and those who wish to be photographed. No alcohol is allowed at this event. Anyone under the influence of any impairing substances will be asked to leave.
Our next Sabbat of the year will be held on Sunday November 1st.
We hope to have service outside. However, if it needs to take place indoors, we would like to remind everyone that seating is limited, and arriving early is preferred.
You may garb if you like for ritual, however it is not a requirement.
Ritual will begin promptly at 2:00 pm.
We would like to remind you, if you have lost a love one in the past year, feel free to bring a stone to add to our burial mounds.
Also, don't forget to bring something for the post-ritual potluck. The dish theme is family recipes. Please be sure what you bring is already fully cooked. The oven and warming trays are only able to be used to keep items heated up on holidays.
If you do not have the time to make something, a store bought item or beverages are always a welcome donation. We also understand some people just cannot spare the funds or effort to bring something. Do not let this deter you from joining us. All are welcome.
