Covenant of the Goddess

The Covenant of the Goddess is one of the largest and oldest Wiccan religious organizations.  The Covenant is incorporated as a non-profit religious organization in California, though it has grown to be an international organization.  It is a confederation of covens and solitaires of various traditions, who share in the worship of the Goddess and the Old Gods and subscribe to a common code of ethics.  Wicca, or Witchcraft, is the most popular expression of the religious movement known as Neo-Paganism and is the fastest growing religion in the United States according to the Institute for the Study of American Religion.  Its practitioners are reviving ancient Pagan practices and beliefs of pre-Christian Europe and adapting them to contemporary life. The result is a religion that is both old and new, both traditional and creative. The Covenant of the Goddess was incorporated as a nonprofit religious organization on October 31, 1975.
