Though an altar is not a required part of a Bobist ritual, it is a beneficial thing to have. It can be almost anywhere and be filled with anything, the only requireMINT is that it brings joy. Bobist altars are often filled with peppermint candies, peppermint scented candles, and artwork depicting Bobist deities or saints. Shown on the left is an example of a more elaborate Bobist altar, but they can be as simple or as complex as the maker would like.

Since this religion is very focused on the love of peppermints, peppermint candies can be a great addition to rituals. You may place them around you while you perform your ritual, or eat them whilst performing it. Any peppermint candy will work. Soft mints, ribbon candy, candy canes, chocolate peppermint candies, etc. all harbour the spirit of Bobism.

As a religion, we very much encourage members to explore Bobism with curiosity and creativity, and that can involve making rituals for yourself. These are often highly personal and done by including some reminder or token of Bobism in your daily life. These can be quite simple to very complex, it just depends on your personal desire. For example, wearing a necklace that reminds you of the holy peppermints to help remind you to feel calm and refreshed could be considered a ritual, and so could an elabourate dance circle with many people around a fire, chanting Bobist songs. It is all up to the Bobist.

One thing that can help a lot with making personal rituals is to keep a ritual book. These can be made with any blank book, such as a sketchbook or notebook, and they are often decorated with peppermint-inspired items. The one in the example photo is hand-bound, but that's not a requirement. Getting a basic notebook or sketchbook is just as valid- the rituals are the important part! Use this book to keep instructions and notes on your personal rituals and/or Bobist rituals already on the site. That way you'll have one convenient place to go to when you want to do a ritual!

As our deities are not visible in this universe, it can be difficult to summon them and sense their presence. However, you can still do it, and here are a few ideas on how. These can vary depending on how much space and supplies you have but really, anyone can summon a Bobist deity no matter their situation.

Start by setting up your altar, which can be anywhere. You will want to place things like peppermint candies, peppermint-scented candles, candy canes, or really anything peppermint related that you have. You can also place artwork you have made whether it's related to Bobism/peppermints or not, as artwork is sacred in Bobism.

Light your candles, if you have them, and eat a peppermint candy. Focus on the sensation inside your mouth as it dissolves and the flavour spreads throughout your soul. You may choose to simply close your eyes and stay silent, as if meditating, or you can hum/sing a Bobist hymn such as "Bob-Psalms" or "Mintamorphosis". You may feel a sensation of calm washing over you, as if you were warmly embraced by a being unknown. (Mintira and Bob are usually the ones doing the embracing, but if you feel the presence is there but somewhere behind you, it may be Mintaya or Nora. Don't worry, they are just as supportive.)

From there you can spend as much time as you may need, focusing on the love of peppermints. You may ask them a question in your mind or simply acknowledge their presence and rejoice in it. When you are finished with the ritual, blow out any candles and eat one more mint if you so desire before returning to your daily life. Remember that Bobist deities may offer some reassurance, but you are in control of your own life.

This is somewhat like deity summoning, however the deities aren't present in this type of ritual. This type of ritual is meant to form a connection with some sort of physical item and the general spirit of Bobliness, such as a piece of artwork of a baked good. It works the best during the creation of an item, but it can also be done after the creation. The only thing that matters is you feel a strong connection to it.

For example, a good thing to start with is baked goods, especially those that involve peppermints. For inspiration, you might look at this list. Start by laying out your ingredients as well as lighting peppermint candles if you so desire to set the mood, and turn on a speaker to play Bobist hymns such as Bob-Psalms, Spearmint Sacrifice, Mintamorphosis, etc. You can also eat a peppermint (or multiple) while you do this. Feel yourself get lost inside the music as you begin the recipe. Once you are finished, whatever you have made will be imbued with the passionate spirit of Bobism.

This same process can be done with artwork and really anything you are making by hand. Some ideas may be crocheting, needle felting, candle making, painting, drawing, or really anything you may want to do. It also works especially well with ceramic artwork, such as the Bobist ice cream dish shown beside this section.

This is a more involved ritual, meant to help a Bobist move forward in their life by putting a clear end to a past era of themselves and untethering themselves to it. How exactly this is done can vary vastly, as everyone's life is different, but the general idea is constant.

• To begin, the Bobist must identify what part of their life they want to put a close on. This can be something in the physical universe or something in the mind, such as a belief you once held that you would like to leave behind. 
• If the thing involves a person, place, etc. in the world, the Bobist shall go to it and resolve things as best they can. For example, if it is a person they wronged, they may go back and apologise, or a place they never want to return to, they may go there to officially bid farewell. The important thing here is that you mean it. Don't do a half-assed apology, do your absolute best to be genuine as that is the only way you can move on. 
• After you do this, chant 'O, Bob, holy peppermints, bid farewell to this chapter in my life'. Do this as many times as you feel necessary.
• Aftwerwards, do something you enjoy. Perhaps cook your favourite meal, do something self-care related, make art, etc. This will serve as the first thing done in this new era of your life, so it's important to have it be a positive experience.
