It is our aim to create a learning community where children can interact, exchange ideas, and build friendships. We come together in an attempt to create and provide opportunities for our children that they would not be able to experience outside of a group. Children are empowered through project work when they see what they are able to collectively accomplish and contribute to their community. Minds In Motion’s focus is on creating opportunities for our children to grow academically and socially in an accepting and loving environment. As hard working home schooling parents we find inspiration and encouragement from each other.

- Pagan_Families_and_Friends_of_West_Michigan (Pagan Families and Friends of West MI) - PFFWM strives to involve entire families in the Pagan ways. We believe that passing on the knowledge of our paths to future generations is the only way to ensure growth and further development of the Pagan movement. It is only through education and knowledge that we can make choices of our own as to what path to follow.
We are a West Michigan based support and social group of pagans and pagan-friendly families and friends. Our members are from all over West Michigan with different social and economic backgrounds. We have families with children ranging from newborn to teenagers, some with no children, and some single adults.
It is our mission to support and present educational opportunities for our fellow pagans, children and adults, as we make our way down our own spiritual paths. We are dedicated to presenting opportunities for our families to learn more about what it means to be pagan through family friendly, hands-on public rituals, gatherings with other pagan families. We are also dedicated to developing a pagan-centered curriculum to be used as a supplement to home or classroom schooling.
We are incorporated with the State of Michigan as a domestic nonprofit corporation.
