The April/May 2023 CUUPs National Worship List is out!
Beltane marks the point about halfway between the spring equinox and summer solstice. It is one of the cross-quarter day celebrations. Some pagans celebrate it by lighting bonfires, dancing around maypoles, making flower crowns, and more.
Join any chapter on the worship list to visit and learn about Beltane and different ways to observe it.
March brings the spring equinox and the return of warmer days if you live in the Northern hemisphere. Night and day are in equal balance. Some pagans might celebrate with spending time in nature, starting gardens, spring cleaning, and more.
Join any chapter on the worship list to visit and learn about different pagan celebrations in March and ways to observe them.

The October and November CUUPS Worship List is out!
For some pagans, Samhain is the point on the wheel in between the Autumn Equinox and Winter Solstice. In this season, some honor death as a part of the sacred circle of life and remember ancestors and cherished loved ones who have died.
Join any CUUPs chapter on the worship list to visit both lunar and solar rituals in October and November!
Mystic Grove CUUPs will be having in person Samhain on October 29, 2022. Gather at 6:30 PM for Meet & Greet orientation, 7 PM ritual and 8 PM potluck. Event details on the worship list and at https://www.facebook.com/events/364910232416037
While our rituals are family friendly, Samhain can be a tough topic. Those with very young children might enjoy these books when having the first talks about death as a part of the natural life cycle.
September brings Harvest Moon celebrations, Mabon or Autumn Equinox observances, and other pagan and earth-centered rituals. Join any chapter on the worship list to celebrate and visit their ritual.
Thanks to the Mystic Grove CUUPs members who contributed to this project and represented 1U!
