Big thank you to all the amazing Folk at Baldrshof! We all had a fantastic Freyfaxi. This year, I had the honor of ordaining Gyưja Sara Ault as a priestess of the Ćsir. We are all tremendously proud of Sara and excited to have her serving in her new capacity.
Starting at Freyfaxi, we have seen a surge of member applications and new apprentices; Joshua Bailey and Jacob Rutledge in Indiana, Taylor Traficanti in Virginia, Jared Davison in Ontario, Brandon Larsen in New York, and Austin Merwald in Wisconsin. There is a palpable momentum that we are experiencing, and we have exciting developments to tell you about when the time is right.
Welcome to all our new and returning students as we begin the 4th year of our AFA ĆsatrĆŗ Academy!
Fall is here and as the air chills and we turn inward, this is a great time to celebrate hearth, home, and family. The veil is thinning, and the ancestors are drawing closer. Let us all take full advantage of this special time to share family traditions and to build new ones. As you make time for family, always remember to make time for your AFA family as well. Our families and our Folk are best when we invite the Ćsir into all that we do and celebrate WITH them.
Hail the Ćsir!
Hail the Folk!
Hail the AFA!
