Because so many of you have inquired after the well-being of those who attended the FOI Convocation, and for the staff and property of Isis Oasis, the following is posted here:
Received from deTraci Regula

We are blessed. Fires in the area surrounding us are
contained. Thankfully the Advisory Evacuation notice was lifted. All of our
animals have been safely returned. Isis Oasis is currently hosting evacuees.
The Santa Rosa Evacuation Center has been sending those in need to us for
shelter. There is lingering smoke here and in other areas of Sonoma County.
We are so grateful for messages of love, support and prayers
received from members worldwide. At times the situation caused us great concern
for our safety. We felt blessed by the prayers of those who hold us in their
hearts. We are grateful for what we have, and for what we can still offer to
the community, as so many around us have suffered devastating loss. We give
thanks above all, to Isis, Our Mother, for Her strength and protection. May we
go forth united in loving intent in Her Name.
Because of the fires we have received several cancellations
of upcoming stays and events. Added to this, we are using our resources to aid
those who have come for shelter on our property. Donations are welcome. You may
donate through PayPal, our e-mail address is isis@isisoasis.org
More information is available on our website: http://www.isisoasis.us/donate-today/
Another way to offer support, is for those who are able to
attend our upcoming inauguration of a new annual event for Samhain, consisting
of dinner and a magical play written by FOI/TOI priestess Annie Waters on
Sunday, November 5. The theme of this year’s event focuses on the Mystery of
Isis and Osiris, and in particular, his resurrection and rebirth. For more
information write to us at the e-mail address above, or call our office at
707-857-4747.
Thank you so very, very much. May you all be richly blessed.
