“Rooted in the Earth, Aligned with the Principles”
Guest Speaker – Stef Licari and members of CUUPS
Circles in the Woods is a CUUPS (Covenant of Unitarian Universalist Pagans) chapter affiliated with UUCT, Unitarian Universalist Church of Tampa.

Join Stef Licari and members of CUUPs as they explore how Pagan spirituality and Unitarian Universalist values intersect and complement one another. Stef is a longtime practitioner of Paganism and has been active in CUUPs communities for more than 20 years. A lifelong spiritual seeker, she holds degrees in Environmental Science, Fine Arts, Global Supply Chain Management, and Project Management, and has worked professionally in publishing, aerospace manufacturing, and municipal water rehabilitation.
Drawing on personal experience and shared traditions, Stef and her fellow presenters will discuss how reverence for nature, personal responsibility, community, and spiritual exploration are deeply rooted in both Pagan practice and UU principles. Whether you are familiar with Paganism or simply curious to learn more, this service offers an opportunity to discover common ground and deepen understanding across spiritual paths.
Worship Associate – Alex Furnari
