My family is in the process of moving to the St. Louis area. My spouse and I have also been exploring pagan religions and were wondering if there are any groups, covens, or even areas friendly to those new to polytheistic religions? I'm hesitant to ask around in person or on Facebook since most of the people we know are of Christian faith and wouldn't take kindly to our new spirituality.

I would search for New ages Stores when you move. One of them is called Pathways in South County. https://pathwaysstl.com/

What pagan religions are you speaking of? Like most cities, certain areas may be open to sacrificing animals to Oden but be really against leaving children on top of volcanoes. ;-)

Seriously, belittle lovekcmo all you want but they're being honest. Yes, it's America, you can worship who you want but expecting a Midwest city to welcome paganism like it's an every day thing is as far fetched as it comes. My question is this, are you hoping to walk around wearing your religion on you sleeve? Because even a Catholic monk get's strange looks these days. If that's the case I agree, there are probably a lot more far left / hippie places in America.

Ultimately I think your trepidation about posting on FB should already answer your question.

There are pagan and Wiccan people everywhere, even in a religiously homogeneous place like Utah. I'm sure you'll be fine in Missouri if you have reasonably thick skin.

St Louis/KC/Missouri as a whole, Atheist will look at Pagans funny. It's just how it is.

The Unitarian Universalist church has a pagan group that meets there.
