Question: "What is it that you look for in potential associates, what qualities make up an ideal associate?"
Greetings,
Well, this is a good question. The Vampire Church has had an
interview process in place for the main members or Associates of the
Vampire Church. I set this up close after the Vampire Church came
into being. The reason for this process is to enable a place for real
vampires to learn and share about the experiences and problems
associated with real vampirism. The interview process is designed
to "weed" out people that we think are role players, that is people
who look at vampirism as a game of fantasy.
The membership process in place is designed for the Vampire Church to get to know people who seek associate membership and they to learn about us. The main
criteria here is that the Vampire Church looks for Associates who are
real vampires as defined by our purpose and philosophy. We also look
for people who have a willingness to be involved and give a little of
their time to enable programs of the Vampire Church which are
designed to help work and be responsive. The Associate membership of
the Vampire Church is expected to be actively involved; this is not a
membership for anyone wanting to just hang their hat on a name. That
is an important part of what we look for in people wanting Associate
membership. This part of the Vampire Church along with the Council is
the core of the Vampire Church's ability to respond to the community.
I seek serious people interested in involvement and who are reliable
in character and want to be active in the vampire community. This
membership is an integral part of the Vampire Church and it's ability
to offer the programs it does to the community.
Dark regards,
Damien Daville
Elder and Founder
