Happy 17th Birthday! 

Wow!  Covenant of the River has been a very special place for 17 years.  (Thanks Jean!)  Tonight we plan to do something to thank everyone and celebrate what a great community we have.    So for now, come at 4:00

We will have fun games, a roast and lemon cake and whatever folks bring. There will be a pinata and general fun and silliness.

Hi Friends and future friends!

Sometimes it’s hard to get out and go somewhere.  Sometimes it’s hard to think about being with other people, especially if you haven’t met them.   The best thing about Council Open Hours is that it is like a comfy pillow or your favorite PJs.  We are just hanging out hoping you will come see us and to see anyone else who comes.  There aren’t usually very many people with us and it’s totally casual – there’s nothing we have planned, nothing to accomplish.  Bring something to talk about or just come to sit quietly and see what it’s like.
Maybe you haven’t been to anything in awhile and you feel a little outside and want to connect again. Or you just keep saying “I’m going to go to Covenant of the River “some day”.”  Well, now is a great time!

Council is here!  First Fridays we set aside time to meet with people and talk to people.   Casually, just hanging out.  We usually all sit together but if you are in need of a private conversation, that can be arranged.

This is why we are here.  We are here for you.  You will not be bothering us or interrupting us because we are here for you to talk to or hang out with.  Stop by the Hall between 7pm and 9pm.  See you soon!

Hera, child of Kronos and wife/sister of Zeus – she is a strong goddess with a lot of darkness of her own to face.  Do you struggle with resentments?  Frustrations?  Relationship problems?  Have you learned to stand with grace and strength without losing control as the world around you spins out events that would make anyone scream in rage?  And she finds her little ways to have revenge – just ask Hercules.  And she’s got those hidden cameras everywhere (peacock feather eyes).  I like her because for a goddess she’s so very human.  Being strong and resilent, appearing stoic but then she loses it with goddess quality revenge.     And in spite of all that, she holds it together and is considered the Queen of Heaven in Greek Mythology because she is the wife of Zeus

The Dark Moon Group is going to try another  Saturday get together.  We will gather at the Hall at the usual 7pm time for conversation and lighting the cauldron of candles.

The Dark Moon group is usually small with a variety of people coming when it works for them but often only 5 or so people on a given month.  If you have never been to a Dark Moon Group, you are very welcome, even if it is your first Covenant activity.  It’s dark with low lighting and usually quiet.

Around 7:30 we will talk about Hera (who goes by Juno in Rome) and then have a ritual to honor her.   If you have thoughts or questions, feel free to bring them.
