Living Earth offers neo-Pagan religious services. For those not familiar with these types of services, here is an overview of what we believe and our church's way of expressing our beliefs.

• We include individual participation because we believe we all have equal access to the Divine; clergy is not necessary to mediate your communication with and inspiration from Spirit although we do designate clergy, ritual officiants, and facilitators at various times. 

• Neo-Pagan means we believe in both feminine and masculine aspects of the Divine, called Goddess and God. We may use the names of Gods and Goddesses known throughout many cultures and times to connect with specific qualities of Divinity we wish to honor at different times, in a multicultural, diverse, and respectful way. Most of our members are polytheistic; others are atheist, mystic, spiritual, or monotheistic. We affirm the mystery that Divinity may be experienced, perceived, and honored in many forms, from personified deities to archetypes of humanity to a sense of oneness and more. 

• Our religious services take place in a circle, most often with an altar at the center. Seating is always available for those who need it, although those without mobility issues may be asked to stand, move, dance, sit, or more, as the ritual requires. 

• Living Earth rituals often include chant, song, poetry, crafts, drumming, and music. 

• We utilize, honor, and connect with the energies of nature. Timing with the solar and lunar cycles feels right to us, so we offer Full Moon circles as well as Sabbats, which take place on the solstices, equinoxes, and halfway between each. 

• We are an open circle, meaning we are not a closed membership organization where an invitation is required to participate. Anyone who would like to attend may do so as long as they are respectful and appropriate. We do not require members to attend with any frequency or declare membership status to attend our rites or participate in any way. There are no pre-requisite requirements for ritual experience, pagan clergy training, or initiatory status to join, participate, or help lead rituals or organize the group. Those who feel called to serve and to share of their leadership skills are welcomed. 

All our ceremonies, workshops, and other events are posted on our meetup website,www.meetup.com/livingearth. It is free to join, although supporting membership dues, donations, and volunteer time are gratefully accepted. All Living Earth events are open to the public.
