Mission: Living Earth's mission is to create a visible, easily accessible, positive Earth-centered spiritual service community in Denver.
To accomplish our mission, we have established these program priorities.
· Ceremony - Our first and foremost priority is to offer worship services that are welcoming and accessible to all, such that anyone regardless of whether they are new or an established member of the neo-Pagan community can participate, connect with the Earth, with the Divine, and with each other. The core of our regular religious services are the free and open rituals on Sabbats and Full Moon Esbats.
· Community - We form an organized, intentional community out of the chaos of an exploding religious movement that honors established tradition while adapting to the needs of a growing laity. Our regular religious services are enhanced by many other rituals, fellowship events, classes, festivals, and workshops.
· Advocacy - As a church and nonprofit organization, we are happy to share information with the public about religions and spiritual paths many people are still unfamiliar with to dispel stereotypes and misinformation. However, we do not proselytize.
· Service – Serving our community and our planet is primary to Living Earth. Many members who practice their religion in other groups come to Living Earth solely for our opportunities to serve the greater community in more practical ways, through organizing events or helping the needy. The networking we are doing by bringing together people and reaching that critical mass of people necessary to effect real change in our community is something that other neo-Pagan organizations aren’t doing in Denver so Living Earth is becoming that resource for information, assistance, pastoral care, help for the elderly, and more, even for those who attend, practice their own, or lead different worship services.
