Rev. Anna succeeded Rev. Tsitra Kent as Witan herald, who in turn succeeded Rev. Jason Mycroft. As Witan Herald Rev. Anna helps to co-ordinate communications and records for the Witan Council.

Rev. Anna has this to say about herself and her experience as a Correllian Priestess:

"I currently live in the wonderful county of Suffolk in the United Kingdom .

"I share a house with my partner Karl, also a member of the Tradition, who is currently studying the 2^nd Degree, and my little cheeky cairn terrier Mysti and two adorable cats, Amber and Tabatha who frequently help on the pc.   The house as the crow flies is about a mile from the sea and about 3 miles from the town, backs onto the countryside and is on what is known as ’the sunrise coast’ because the town is the most easterly in the UK. I see the sun rise through the windows at the front of the house and go down through the windows at the back.

"My family on both my mother and father’s side originally came from France with the Huguenots. They were Protestants escaping from persecution by the French Catholics. So it was quite surprising that my family ended up as Catholic eventually.  They were originally weavers and cloth makers.  My mother was a staunch catholic but she died when I was six months old so I was brought up by my father and my grandparents till I was 5 when my father remarried.

"I discovered my father was really interested in Buddhism and would frequently sit with me explaining metaphysics.  I was about 12 years old when I was first introduced, by my father to such fascinating and wonderful concepts, and as the years went on and I got older he revealed more of the metaphysical world to me.   From a young age, although I was brought up a catholic, I knew deep in my mind that Catholicism wasn't really the way for me but I wasn't sure exactly what was.   I was fascinated by Buddhism, but that didn't quite sit properly with me either.

"The years went by, I married and had two wonderful sons who are now grown up.   I had been coasting along for years not quite knowing or having the time for myself.  Now my sons were grown I had the opportunity to devote a little time to myself.   This is when I bought my first pc in the April 1999.  Like so many others I was surfing the net, can't remember now why I was, but I came across the 'Daily Spell'.  Can you imagine!  I had found what I didn't realise I'd been seeking.

"It was announced in the emails that The Correllian Tradition was going to provide the Degree courses one lesson at a time by email starting with the 1st Degree in the following October.  I still have all the 1st Degree email printed out and in a binder, the very first one dated October 4th 1999. I have the 2nd Degree and the 3rd copied and stored in folders too.

"I was Self Initiated in November 2000, Rev. Don said I was the first of the Tradition’s Initiate of the Wiccan New Year.    The following September I became a 1st Degree Mentor and Senior Mentor following on shortly after [thank you Fabrisia for 
asking me to apply]. I completed the 2nd Degree in December 2003 and 
was initiated and became 2nd Degree Mentor in March 2004. I have this 
year attained 3rd Degree Clergy and Mentor status.

"I am on a couple of committees, one for the Tradition and one for Witchschool.   I run a number of yahoo groups including Correllian Wicca UK , Correllian Wicca EU, Reiki group, a new Tarot group, poetry group, a group for support of domestic abuse victims, a yoga group and a political discussion group  as well as my Witchschool study groups. I was fortunate enough to have a short course on Isis accepted by Witchschool, my Patron being Isis .  I also have a personal Shrine to the Goddess Isis who has been with me since I was about eleven years old.

"I am the manager for the WS7 study group,  as well as Mentoring for the ws1 group, my own 1st, 2nd and 3rd Degree Witchschool students and my Degree Temple students.   I am a also member of several of the Witchschool's clubs  but find I don’t have enough time to participate as much as I’d like.. 

"I took over the job of Witan Herald in October 2005.  I hope to serve Witchschool and the Correllian Tradition as long as The Goddess will allow. "
