My hope is to get a group of mom's and their kids and work together to contribute to our community and even abroad where it's needed, while teaching our children altruism, empathy and a sense that they can make a real difference in the world they live in.

"Meditation is a mental discipline that enables us to do one thing at a time." (Max Picard) There is no "right way" to meditate.  We all are busy people and most of us have 10,000 thoughts running through heads.  We forget to take a moment of our time and to focus on ourselves. When we are in this spot we can pull back from it all and allow ourselves to focus on one simple thought by focusing on a sound, an image like the sunset, the feeling of our own breathing. At first I could only keep my fo …

Our meetings are an open time of sharing, singing, praying, and fellowship bringing each person's portion of Christ to build one another up in love and unity in The Spirit.
