Sub titled "Church row witches plan pagan ritual".
by Ian McCaffrey
White witches hope to kill off plans to build a church in Pound Hill
by performing a bizarre ritual on the proposed site.
Six witches from the Covenant of Earth Magic will gather under a full
moon dressed in ceremonial robes to conjure up pagan spirits.
By summoning up the forces of nature they hope to protect the
Balcombe Road woodland site from development into the Crawley
Community Church.
Chief witch of the 250-strong coven, Kevin Carlyon, said a talisman -
a five pointed star within a circle - would be used in the ritual.
"We shall mark out a large circle in the woods and burn incense," he
said.
"The talisman wil be buried and will be used as a focus for our
thoughts and powers. We shall then invoke the forces of nature
to protect the site from its planned destruction."
The white witch said his Hastings-based coven had been approached
by residents determined to stop the church being built at all costs
Elim Pentecostal Church pastor John Burgan said he planned to join
forces with Crawley Community Church leaders to pray against the
witches.
"This really shows the bitter hatred of the whole pagan movement for
anything that is christian" he said. "But what they do won't have
any effect - God will have its way".
He added that there was no distinction between black or white witches
because all forms of sorcery were forbidden by the Bible.
Planning officers in the Town Hall are still considering whether to
give the plans to build a 554-seat church the go-ahead.
The witches plan to gather at the site on either November 2 or 9 at
9pm.
*The above article was given to me by an "interested" party. The
above mentioned John Burgan has some months ago, succeeded in closing
down an occult shop before it even opened!! And he says Pagans have
it in for the church!!!
