Adding to the excitement, a brand new conference is set to launch in Portland, a city that consistently champions alternative spiritualities. The Pagan Conference is designed to bring together practitioners from all walks of Pagan life, providing an open space for discussions, workshops, and networking opportunities.

Moreover, attendees can look forward to a variety of speakers, including seasoned practitioners and fresh voices who are all eager to share their knowledge and insights.

Not to mention, Portland’s eclectic atmosphere provides the perfect backdrop for this gathering of mind, spirit, and community.

As we anticipate the upcoming full moon and all the wonders it brings, this week reminds us that the Pagan community is ever-evolving and full of surprises. It’s not just a gathering; it’s an invitation to explore and celebrate the richness of our identities and the bonds we forge with each other!

Not only are these developments promising for the community, but they also highlight the continued resurgence of Paganism in modern society, offering insight into how ancient practices are being revitalized. Fun fact: Rev. McCollum has been at the forefront of numerous interfaith dialogues, promoting understanding amongst diverse spiritual paths. Moreover, Portland itself is known for having one of the largest Pagan populations in the US, making it a key location for events and gatherings in the community. Both the conference and McCollum’s initiatives signify a bright future for diversity and spirituality in our ever-changing world.
