Re: I'm a Pagan Chaplain
wow,well done sleepy owl, but i have to confess i am somewhat confused ( although it doesn't take much ). 'Chaplain' has Cof E associations and pagan is very un Cof E. I would love to know some more, having been raised Roman Catholic and now practising Hedgewitch.

Re: I'm a Pagan Chaplain
Well done mate. It's good to see an open minded Uni, do you know if there are many pagan chaplins across the country. I imagine you must be something of a trail blazer.

Re: I'm a Pagan Chaplain
Congrats SleepOwl!
I did an unofficial stint doing caplancy work for a prisoner a few years ago as my late father was a prison officer & felt that Pagans deserved equall treatment.
'Caplain' is simply a term given to a spiritual advisor of what ever faith, as I understand it.

Re: I'm a Pagan Chaplain
Well done! Pardon my igorance - but how does it work? Do you perform the same sort of ceremonies as a regular chaplain? Can you do things like weddings? Are they legally binding?
Good luck with Freshers Week!

It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Re: I'm a Pagan Chaplain
In Scotland, a pagan wedding is legally binding as long as you've done all your paperwork. IIRC, it's a bit harder in England - you sort of have to have the registry bit, and then the 'pagan bit' (and therefore pay twice) whereas up here, the pagan celebrant can do both jobs. I think.
Congratulations, Sleepyowl. I am sure you will bring comfort, joy and peace to many. Brightest blessings.

I took my dog to play frisbee. She was useless. I think I need a flatter dog.
