Lughnasadh, the celebration of the first harvest, is just around the corner!  Church of the Earth will be celebrating this Sabbat on Sunday, August 5th, at Lake Wheeler park in Raleigh. Let’s start the harvest season off with giving back! What better way to honor the first harvest than to send an abundant donation of non-perishable foods to our local Food Bank?  Let us give back to our community and help the Food Bank of Central & Eastern North Carolina prepare for the colder months ahead when so many families are in need. Please bring your donations with you to Sunday Circle on August 5th and we will have a collection area. Blessed be!
