Snow Conditions in Index, Wa. affecting local Internet access

E’bet asked me to post a little something in regards to email response times from the Main Church right now.

The recent snowfalls in Index have interrupted Internet access for several days now. At last measure, the snow level was up to 27″ on the church grounds. Pete has to regularly clear the satellite dish of new snowfall, but this has still not allowed them reliable internet access. The snow and ice on the surrounding trees just makes establishing a connection impossible right now.

They would like to let everyone know that they are both otherwise fine and that while Internet access is down, the best way to get hold of them is to call the main office. If you have sent an email to the church and they have not yet responded, please be patient while they get caught up. They will send a reply as soon as regular internet access of any kind is established.

And remember that office hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Calls outside these hours are routed to Voice Mail.

On a related note, E’bet has said she has many photos of the snowy scene up there and will post them as soon as she can get online. Stay tuned for more.

Full Moon Ritual is Canceled

Important Announcement!!

The ATC Full Moon Circle scheduled for tonight in Index has been
canceled due to hazardous road conditions. Everyone Please stay
safe and warm!

If you are inclined to do any personal Full Moon work tonight, I
would like to share the following excerpt from the Hermit’s Lantern
written by Rev. Paul Beyerl:

” This Full Moon has an excellent influence. It is a time to invoke
blessings for all manner of benefits and goodness into your
life. You are in the early stages of a Neptune transit lasting
several months. Although it typically brings some uncertainty and
even confusion about the direction of your life, it also opens you up
to new possibilities. This will most be felt in the areas of your
belief system, personal philosophy, and desire to learn and
grow. Mars Days the 16th-21st may feel challenging and something you
were hoping for may not turn out as you had hoped, but it is good to
have this over with before the Solstice.”

Many Thanks and Blessings to All -

Full Moon Ritual for 12/13/08 most likely called off due to unfavorable road conditions

I just spoke to Pete a few minutes ago. He had just returned from a road trip. He called to tell me road conditions on the way to Index were already too hazardous to expect anyone to make it there without four-wheel drive and a working knowledge of the roads up there. He passed several cars that were left to the side of the road tonight.

Keep watching the website and announcement lists for any further updates from Kathi, the Full Moon Coordinator and High Priestess and/or myself. But as of right now road conditions are not favorable for holding ritual this Saturday night.
