How did they know I was coming ;-) The Mass was one hour sharp: the homily was very instructive. Fewer children at this time. Parking was pay parking (1$/hour), but could have parked for free 300 yards away and walked in 4 degrees ;-) The organ was very loud and I could not hear what people were singing.

Have a blessed week y'all!

Eckankar is a spiritual teaching that teaches about love and loving all of life. It teaches that Soul's ultimate destiny is to become a co-worker with God and that Soul exists because God loves It. What I love about the ECK teachings is that each day, they bring out the best in me, helping me to be a shining light and a beacon of love to all that I meet. I'm truly grateful to have found this path back home to God.
