HOUSEHOLDING CHANEL

Householding Chanel was created by Marge Robbins about 10 years ago to serve a vehicle for fan writing. When Marge left fandom for a time, membership was closed and the House held in trust by Karen MacLeod until Marge's return. Now it is being reactivated.

Specialty: Psychology with embroidery and beadwork being a secondary means of support.

Virtue: Service

Motto: he rises highest who helps others up

Colors: red, gold, brown

Symbol: Our logo is a gold lamp inside a red letter C. The C stands for Chanel, a Simelan word for born to serve. The lamp inside is an ancient symbol for learning. In the days of the early householdings (circa HoZ and ZD) it has come to stand for light and truth, the advancement of knowledge and progression of the human race.

PLEDGE:

Unto the House of Chanel I peldge my life, my hopes and dreams, my substance and my children. And unto the Sectuib in Chanel, I pledge my love, my trust, my undying loyalty, as I serve the house by serving others. Unto Chanel, forever.

Sectuib's response:

Unto (name) ambrov Chanel, I pledge my trust, my substance, and the love of our House as from darkness to light we walk together. Unto Chanel, forever.
