00:00:00.000 Before we get started tonight, I want to talk a little bit about doing things together as a folk.
00:00:07.620 And one of the things I'm going to ask all of you to do tonight, sometime this evening,
00:00:12.600 is I want you to go to your altars or go to a quiet corner of your house, go outside,
00:00:20.760 make an offering to the Aesir, to the ancestors, and ask them to watch over our folk who have
00:00:28.240 been suffering from the hurricanes that have happened down south and especially tonight in
00:00:33.340 Florida. We have a lot of people down there, a lot of our people, a lot of our members and a lot of
00:00:38.860 our folk down there who are in need, who are scared and who are right in the way of these storms or
00:00:46.200 have been affected by the storms already. Now, when we do things together, I want you to think of
00:00:52.460 the great big fire that you can gather around when you're at ritual, when you're at bloat. 0.97
00:01:00.700 Think of that raging fire as the folk flame.
00:01:06.680 Every once in a while, a small spark is going to pop out of that, right? When you do something
00:01:13.740 individually, that spark is you. The gods see it. We see it. But when we work together,
00:01:22.460 And we combine our energies for a purpose and our prayers and our offerings.
00:01:28.080 We are that raging flame.
00:01:30.720 So I do ask everyone tonight if you could please give some sort of offering, a prayer, some energy to help protect our people and protect those that have been affected and are currently being affected by the hurricanes that are going down south.
00:01:46.120 and speaking of which we have actually raised uh some money for some hurricane
00:01:53.400 hurricane relief funds already and we actually do have two of our wonderful folk builders uh
00:01:59.120 folk builder Heinlein and folk builder Bethea that are already down there helping out with
00:02:04.060 hurricane relief and they are currently uh down south helping our folk that are affected by there
00:02:09.080 these are actually pictures that were taken by the folk builders that are there on site
00:02:14.600 helping folk recover helping with cleanup and helping people in need we've currently raised
00:02:20.300 over three thousand dollars and we could use more to help these people all of that money is going
00:02:25.400 directly to this effort so if you could please go to runestone.org go to donate and we're going to
00:02:31.280 be helping our folk down there recover and rebuild so please if you can absolutely donate to that
00:02:40.520 help us help the folk down there. Please be generous with that. There's a lot of people
00:02:46.020 they need down there.
