Celebrating pagan pride

A group participates in the opening ritual adoration of Rah during the second annual Pagan Pride Day, "A Bridge to Understanding," at Monroe Park in Ogden. Alexius Gallegos closes his eyes as he makes a sign during the opening ritual. The local pagan groups got together and enjoyed workshops, craft vendors, candle?making, pagan roundtable discussion, pagan parenting and a butterfly release. The aim of the Pagan Pride Project is to see the advancement of religion and elimination of prejudice and discrimination based on religious beliefs. Admission to the event was an item of nonperishable food for the food drive.
