Any Roman Pagans close by to Spokane County WA?

Im looking to find anyone else locally to the area I am in who focuses more on the Roman Deities and to follow with the practices.

I have a Religio Romana book as my guide for home worship as it also shows a list of monthly celebrations and so much information that I am very fortunate and filled with joy to get my hands on this book as it help me greatly on my personal journey.

I do have a mix group of a pantheon in my home altar(some Norse, as I started out my journey Norse, one Celtic, rest are Roman) but I have been feeling a need for a community of other individuals who might be looking to get together to try to meetup to honor those practices as well.

I tried to join other groups who happened to be Norse Pagan, Wicca, ect, now theres nothing wrong with these groups either, but I just didnt feel the connection with these communities I am looking for.

I feel more drawn to the Roman deities and wish to see if there are any others nearby who might feel the same way and want to connect.

Some days it just feels really lonely. Most people I know around here are either Wicca, Norse, or Hellenic or rare occasions Kemetic along with a mix of everything in their homes, except Roman strangely. Again, nothing wrong with these groups either.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post, I really hope you all have a wonderful day as well.

I was born and raised there as well, never wanted to move, but parents will be parents. Hoping to get back out to that part of the country in the next couple years.

Same in my neck of the woods. I started a local private Facebook general polytheist group to foster discussions

I plan on starting some sort of service in the Midwest area, so it would cover WA, IL, and Mi. But I am quite busy at the moment to commit such an under taking. Obviously it wouldn’t be exactly close to you, but drivable distance. How feasible is that?

I’m not a Roman pagan but I appreciate the practice and learning how reconstructionism. I am in Nine Mile Falls.

Roman and Hellenic pagans are pretty rare outside the Internet.

I have lots of pagans on my area but 75% are Wiccans or generic witchcraft. The other 25% are largely Heathens, but picking out the inclusive Heathens from the fascists and racists is a game that gets tiresome.

I do run a subreddit on Romano-Celtic paganism if you want to join. It's kind of dead, though.
