Re: An Appeal from Life Force Arts Center

This message was forwarded from FOI Priestess Joan Forest Mage. (Thank you Deena!)

Life Force Arts Center needs your help!

We need to raise $7000 for July & August's rent by this Tuesday, August 24, or we will have to move out of our beautiful space.

I'm asking anyone who possibly can to join as a Member of Life Force Arts Center at whatever level they can. You can join by paypal. (Many thanks to those of you who are already members!)

You can also make a donation, if you don't want an annual membership.
Also, please send our information to anyone you think could become a member or make a donation.

While this is a challenge, it's not an insurmountable one. LFAC is a not-for-profit, tax exempt 501 (c) 3 organization, and like most organizations of our kind, we depend on memberships and donations to enable us to provide the low cost and free programs and services that we provide to the public.

Thanks in advance for your help!

In Memory of Isaac Bonewits


Isaac Bonewits passed on August 12, 2010.


Thank you, Isaac Bonewits, for sharing so much, for giving of yourself so freely. May you find peace, joy and happiness on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge.


Isaac was a long time member of the Fellowship of Isis. He spent time with FOI Co-Founder Olivia Robertson and Caroline Wise at the Parliament of World Religions in Chicago, 1993. Caroline writes: "He was very entertaining, a mercurial mind, a good memory."


He found his own way, his own connection and shared unselfishly. His life served as a shining example of what FOI Co-Founder Olivia Robertson always says we should do - express our "own ideals and faith ... FOI is for the individual - not the individual submerged in the group!"
