Wiccans Aren't So Different From Other Faiths

Author: Gretchen Murray   Source: Traverse City Record Eagle (MI)

Title: 'CLOSE TO THE DIVINE': WICCANS AREN'T SO DIFFERENT FROM OTHER FAITHS

While Christians prepare to celebrate the good news of the resurrection of Jesus Christ this Easter, a lesser known religion is preparing for a major celebration of its own.

In Traverse City, the Rev. Harry C. Dorman is eagerly awaiting the seasonal change.

A Very Sensible Article Mar 18th. at 10:13:20 am EDT

very moderate for once!
As the article said, communication is the secret - the more we talk to each other, the more we will understand each other.
Blessed Be.

This was a really good article. As someone still learning, I found this article very informative, and positive. Hat's off for a very well written article.

Wasn't expecting the article to be so long or so well done.

Here's to making a little bit of progress.
