Pagan rituals on Web site rile Episcopalians

Pagan rituals on Web site rile Episcopalians

A druidic "women's eucharist" and a "divorce rite," both posted on the Episcopal Church's official Web site, have outraged Episcopal conservatives.
The "eucharist," subtitled "A Celebration of the Divine Feminine," was posted Oct. 8 on the denomination's Office of Women's Ministries page at www.dfms.org. It invoked "Mother God" and used a lighted candle, a vase of flowers, a chalice of sweet red wine, a cup of milk and money and a plate of raisin cakes to invoke images of sexuality, fertility and birth.

--I do believe that Jesus has removed the lampstand from the Episcopalian church. Without His light, they've chosen to fill themselves with artificial light.
