A Little About Me...
Greetings. I
am Rev. Heidi Andrews. I am the Vice President and Asst. Senior Pastor
of CEPF. I was born in 1979, and, in 1997, I married Rev. David
Andrews. I am the mother of two children, a boy and a girl. I have
lived on Maryland's Eastern Shore almost my entire life.I grew up in proverbial "Smalltown, USA." I was never 'introduced' to religion as a child. I stumbled across a few churches in my youth, but it didn't take me long to figure out that I did not fit in with the mainstream church. In school, I was well-behaved, got good grades, and had a small tight-knit circle of friends.
At age 12, after marital difficulties almost ended in divorce, my parents moved us to an even smaller town and 'found' religion. Despite their efforts, they could not convince me to attend church with them. I was still convinced that mainstream religion was not for me.
Around the time I entered high school, a new world started opening up for me. I met new people and discovered new ideas and ways of thinking that meshed with my own theories. Around the ages of 16 to 17, I began to do quiet research and was soon skirting the borders of Paganism and witchcraft.
In 1996, I met David, though, at the time, I had no idea what his beliefs were, nor he mine. We spent a lot of time talking, and then he left town. We lost track of each other for a year. Soon I began my senior year of high school and had much on my mind. I was still interested in Paganism, but I was busy with tests, research projects, and working a part-time job.
After I graduated, David came back into my life. He began sharing his beliefs with me. About three weeks later found us living together, and in September 1997, we were married.
Since about 1996, I have studied many different Pagan subjects. I started with probably the most well-known, Wicca. I have also studied Dragon Magick, Faery Magick, Witchcraft, some Natural Magick, Reiki, Tarot, Qabala, Shamanism, and more. I consider myself an Eclectic Pagan in the true sense of the word. In 2004, Dave and I, along with another acquaintance, developed and finalized the concept of CEPF. I am the webmistress for the Church's website.

About the ads on this site...
I didn't put them there. Since I am running on a free service, they put ads on the sites to help pay for hosting. If I scrape up enough money to pay for a premium account, the ads will go away. I may do that eventually, but for now, sorry, you're going to have to deal with them.
