About Us
Our Tradition
We are an Earth-Based Wiccan Church that considers ourselves Metaphysical
Eclectic. We practice the Science of Mind over Matter by incorporating negative
release statements, positive affirmations, prayer, visualizations, meditation, and
the teachings of the Bible and Jesus Christ into our daily lives. Everyone who
participates in our services and church activities quickly learns that the most
important key to spiritual growth is their individual and personal relationship with
deity. Because Metaphysics is not religion specific and most of us did not start out
Pagan, we often teach Metaphysics by incorporating the Bible and the teachings
of Jesus Christ in order to provide a spiritual and moral foundation which is most
often lost by practicing Wicca alone. Our hope is that through the sharing of
personal truths, we can all find something to identify with and quite possibly even
expand our scope of spiritual practice.
Our Beliefs
1) We believe in a Universal Spirit represented by a God and Goddess that is
indwelling in us all and present in all that we see, hear, touch, feel, taste, and
beyond. We are Panentheistic.
2) We believe in the Laws of Natural Order. These are the laws that we can do
nothing to change and so we learn to embrace them and live within their rhythms.
3) We believe in the teachings of the Bible and Jesus Christ, and consistently live
by His teachings for our spiritual and moral foundation.
4) We believe in the codes of conduct set forth in the Witch’s Code of Moral
Ethics:13 Principles to Live By written by Rev. Dr. Kendra Vaughan Hovey.
5) We believe in Karma. This means that every action will be met with an equal
reaction. We strive to live a mindful existence and make every choice
conscientiously.
6) Some of us believe in reincarnation and all the levels of existence.
7) Some of us believe in resurrection and salvation through Jesus Christ.
8) We believe in meditating, praying, and reading the Bible on a daily basis to
establish and maintain a direct relationship with the God and Goddess within.
9) We believe in using negative release statements in order to negate the beliefs
we have learned about ourselves that are untrue.
10) We believe in using positive affirmative New Age prayer in order to reprogram
ourselves with our own life affirming personal truths.
11) We believe in visualizing on a daily basis in order to see our hopes and ritual
practices manifest in our lives.
12) We believe in the Metaphysical trinity of Mind, Soul, and Body or Idea,
Thought, and Manifestation and some of us also believe in the trinity of Father,
Son, and Holy Spirit..
13) We believe that our church should be a safe and loving environment for
people of all faiths and traditions to explore their spirituality and personal truths.
We do not believe
1) We do not believe in worshiping Satan.
2) We do not believe in practicing Magick in our church.
3) We do not believe in practicing ritual in our church.
4) We do not believe in, or participate in human or animal sacrificial rites.
5) We do not believe in practicing rituals skyclad.
6) We do not believe in asking anyone to perform sexual favors.
7) We do not believe in practicing polyamory.
8) We do not believe in practicing the Great Rite publicly or with witness.
9) We do not believe in asking anyone to do anything against their own free will.
10) We do not believe in allowing anyone under the age of 18 to practice in our
Church without parental or guardian permission.
11) We do not believe in discriminating against race, sex, sexual orientation,
physical appearance, religion, class, or physical/mental disabilities.
12) We do not believe in proselytizing.
13) We do not believe in perpetuating fear about Witchcraft.
