Our policy is that whenever we collect any money for an event,
it is donated to the house in which we had the event in. After the March lockdown to reduce the transmission of Covid-19, we moved everything to Zoom but still had safe-distanced pick-up drops for workshop supplies. Thank you to UUCLV for allowing us to hold our drop pick-ups at their physical location.

Our students are never required to "pay" for classes, however, we ask for non-compulsory dues from members. At the first year level, these dues total $15 for classes monthly and an additional $30 for each sabbat. The student can give cash to their instructors, who in turn puts it in the next sabbat envelope (which is usually given to the Las Vegas Natural History Museum) or the student is free to donate monthly to an organization they believe in and want to help. All we ask for is the receipt of that donation. This is why there is so much diversity in our donations.

We get three questions over and over and over again.
This is the most common. Read about the two others here: About US

know, and thankfully, he is incredibly generous with his knowledge and time. He is a leader in the Kemetic Temple Collective, and of Temple of Ra.

He is a font of Egyptological knowledge, studies the same, and has not only helped keep the Kemetic Temple Collective alive after its founder’s untimely passing, but caused to be published Everlasting Egypt, the second in a series of books I consider the gold standard in Kemetic Reconstructionism.

On May 14, 2021, the Pagan community lost a most brilliant member. Matt Whealton.

Saturday, January 16, 2021 from 6 PM to 9 PM

The corn dolls that ICS creates are used to bring certain hopes and desires into our homes. Would you like prosperity? Success? Protection? You can make your doll with those ideas in mind and bring those attributes into your home for the coming year. Next Imbolg, we will use these dolls as kindling for our sabbat fire, so we can start the season of growth with all the right intentions.

Things you’ll need to make your doll:

The State of Inner Circle Sanctuary 2021

12/6/2020

What a long way Inner Circle Sanctuary has come in six years. Our Coven has grown, even in the time of Covid, as have our activities, both private and public. Our Sabbat practices and Sabbat Rituals continue to be excellent, magical, and communal. We hold six classes a week, and in between these classes, the Elders interview potential new students, plan our activities, and continually edit our materials. Our planning also includes planning for the long term, as we try to leave as little to chance as possible.

Over the past few years, our people, and friends who have attended our events have donated several thousands of dollars to charitable organizations, demonstrating Inner Circle Sanctuary’s commitment to the greater community.

Our public lectures and other outreach have been beneficial to the public’s understanding of Witchcraft/Wicca. Inner Circle Sanctuary has been on TV and one of our most talented Elders, Lady Sisterwolf was interviewed for the piece. We are very thankful the Las Vegas Natural History Museum, Fox 5, and Henderson International School have given us the opportunity to edify the public regarding our religion and practices.

Now that the “State of the Sanctuary” has been addressed, please bear with me as I describe how we got here.
