Covenant of the Pentacle Wiccan Church offers a variety of
individual services. Currently, beyond public Sabbat rituals
and educational opportunities, we offer the following to the
community:
Rites of Passage – The Clergy of CPWC
are trained in facilitating rituals to mark the important milestones
and life changes within our community. Every member of clergy
has a different style and structure with such rituals, and will
work with you for an appropriate expression of the rite. Traditional
pagan Rites of Passage include:
- Wiccaning – A ritual for young child,
to bless, protect and consecrate that child.
- Coming of Age – A rite for boys and
girls ranging from early teens to early twenties, signifying
entering into the role and responsibilities of adulthood.
- Handfastings – A ceremony of commitment
between a couple. The ritual can be a spiritual union only,
or a legally binding marriage, we have clergy register with
the clerk of courts office (this is Parish specific). We welcomes
all relationships of love whether they be straight, gay or
lesbian (love, honor and respect are the key).
- Handparting Ritual - Should the relationship
end and ties need be broken.
- Croning & Saging – A ritual of
elderhood for women (Croning) or men (Saging) indicating entry
into the phase of life that is marked by wisdom, maturity
and mentorship.
- Crossing – Rituals to aid an individual
in passing from this life into the next life in the realm
of spirit.
- Funeral – A ceremony not only for
the dead but for the living, to mourn and celebrate the life
of the deceased.
- Pet and/or Familiar passing ritual - A
ceremony to honor our beloved furred or feathered friends.
Other services we offer are:
- House Blessings and Cleansing - Weather
it is a new residence or old we can tailor the ritual to suit
your needs.
- Pet Blessing - similar to a Wiccaning
but for our furred and feathered friends.
- Spiritual Counsel – Our clergy members
are available for spiritual counseling and a wide range of
healing services, dependent upon the High priest or Priestess.
Spiritual counsel is often done in conjunction with divination
techniques and readings such as Tarot, Runes, Scrying and
Mediumship.
- Spiritual Healing – We also offer
spiritual healing in the Witchcraft traditions supplemented
with complimentary modalities including energy work, Reiki,
guided meditation, herbalism, flower essences, and crystal
therapy.
- Prison Ministry – The Prison Ministry
offers lessons and guidance to inmates. See our prison ministry
section for more details.
- Military Outreach – The Military
Outreach Program is available to provide written and/or electronic
communication, supplies and support to those who are currently
serving in any branch of the United States Military.
Our referral service will put you in touch with a minister
that is appropriate for your need and location whenever possible.
