Yesterday we received the incorporation documents in the mail from the SCC — Cabal Fang Temple, Inc. is a bona fide corporation officially authorized to conduct business in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
We’re still not a 501 (c)(3) non-profit corporation though. That’s a designation that comes from the IRS and we are still completing the necessary paperwork. All we have so far is our EIN which is 81-5406720.
I have been talking about building a proper temple of Cabal Fang for years. And at various times over those years, people have given me “the look.” You know what I mean. The head tilt. The half smile. The “isn’t that nice” look. Those annoying looks were all my fault, because I didn’t do a good job of making my vision clear, didn’t let my passion shine brightly enough, didn’t demonstrate my determination.
Those days are gone. From now on we’re going to be clearly demonstrating our vision, passion and determination.
The current tiny Cabal Fang Temple will be replaced by big, beautiful and functional structure. As soon as we get our 501(c)(3) designation and we can collect tax-deductible donations there’s going to be a fund drive to build or buy a suitable temple space. See below for a slide show of what we’re trying to do.
And since every temple needs a priest, I’ve been ordained as an Interfaith Minister and I’m attending the Ekklesia Epignostika seminary in pursuit of Holy Orders with apostolic succession.
Look out world, here we come.
