"The greatest romance is with the Infinite. You have no idea how beautiful life can be. When you suddenly find God everywhere, when He comes and talks to you and guides you, the romance of divine love has begun."

Altar Update and General Meeting-Sunday, March 5th.

Our new altar fabrication has been completed, and we are in possession of it. We have contacted a carpenter for some finishing needs because it is in a raw state. We are getting many bids on painting this week.  We are also going to paint the old altar and base. We would like to update the membership on our progress and what lies ahead before we are finished, and give a financial update this coming Sunday, March 5th. 

Please try to stay for a brief General Meeting on this important issue as we need approval from the membership to spend funds for completion of the altar project.

We would like to thank everyone for their support through donations for this project. We know that this beautiful addition to our chapel will be inspiring for many years to come. And the children will have their very own altar for their Sunday School services.

Daylight savings time begins early morning Sunday, March 12th.

Well Received Meditation, Kirtan and Potluck Social

Our first ever Saturday Meditation, Kirtan and Potluck Social on Saturday, February 25th. was a wonderful success. This seemed to be a very good mix of meditation, kirtan, and social. Because it was so well received we will most likely repeat this format sometime later this year.
