So, one of my projects this semester is starting a focal point for goddess-centered worshippers on SLU's campus. I'm going to post a few specifics related to the club:
Club Name: Heart and Crescent
Head(s): Emma Obata (me) and Sondra Schroder
Website: http://heartandcrescent.webs.com/
Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=7201171525
Witchvox profile: http://www.witchvox.com/vn/vn_detail/dt_gr.html?a=usmo&id=32551
Constitution: Yup! See it here.
I would definitely appreciate it if you all joined the facebook page! We're also planning our annual Samhain ("Halloween") ritual (this will be the third year!), and you all are welcome to attend.
Updates: Sondra spoke with Kenjus T. Watson, the new head of the Cross Cultural Center, and has given him a copy of our constitution. She writes:
"Kenjus wants to help. He is very committed to social justice and is shocked by the way Campus Ministry treated us."
What happened with Campus Ministry:
Two years ago, we approached Lisa Reiter, head of Campus Ministry, who told us such things as:
*Wicca is not an acceptable life path
*We should hang out in the loop, where _people like us_ go
*Wicca is for people who like to look at crystals, and thus is not a real religion
***Neither "Wiccans or Mormons" are allowed to gather and form groups on campus.
FORTUNATELY SHE IS WRONG! Campus Ministry has no power over student groups; SGA does. We hope to charter the group this year!
Also, I recently (about an hour ago) met another witch at SLU & am enlivened with the opportunity to reach out to our community!
