This review is for the yoga sessions on Mondays at 6:30 PM and the Yoga + Sound Bath they do every…read morethird Monday of the month. It's such a great program, and its donation-based--pay what you can. Just make sure to get there early if you want a good spot ( like at 6pm when the doors open) Trust me, you'll want to be up front or in the center, because being on the sides can make it a little tricky to hear the instructor. The yoga itself leans more towards a Hatha style, which is perfect for all levels. The instructor for the last Yoga + Sound Bath was amazing, and there's something so peaceful and relaxing about practicing yoga here, especially after one of *those* Mondays. The sound bath just takes it to a whole other level of zen. They have mats and blocks available, but it gets pretty packed, so bringing your own is a smart move. If you're looking to unwind, reset, and leave all that Monday madness behind, this is definitely the place to be!

The opening of a weekend mass includes a welcome of people visiting not just from outside Seattle but every week people from around the world. If you think catholic religious services are boring, think again by coming to this place----processions, people singing and sometimes, a mentally disabled person praising and shouting during a service.

I walked in out of curiosity more than any thing else. I was warmly greeted by a friendly Japanese…read morewoman. She asked me how I knew about the organization and I told her that I was out on a walk , so I decided to check it out. She explained what they do - which is apparently energy work - giving and receiving "Divine Light", kind of like Reiki. (The distinction between the two, is that they are not allowed to receive any compensation.) She then asked me if I'd be willing to try it out, and I agreed. We sat in a large open room and then instructed me what to do. The "Light" was something that I could actually feel. It was a relaxed and calming experience. Aside from the bowing and stuff, it all seemed natural although not anything I'm use to. All in all, it was subtle yet powerful for me. I did feel better somehow. It's hard to explain. Would I recommend it? Sure! Just go there with an open mind. You'll be pleasantly surprised. - J A

The commitment to proper liturgy from the musicians and the servers is "cathedral-class" as I heard put once. For a welcoming environment and authentic Christianity, this is the place to go. I should also mention that this is one of the few places where you see faith being put into action in the service of its community. The Sunday Dinner program draws many people from around the city to its kitchen and you see this every morning as you come into mass. It helps you remember those who go without since other places try to sweep them under the rug.

A banana bread prize for going to church! They also had a kickass organist who made the walls shake with awesome sound.

It is close to many nice businesses in Burien so it's perfect for travelers and visitors from out of town. There is lovely carpeting and woodwork. It just gives you a nice, warm feeling.

The bathrooms have dark red 1 inch tiles along the whole thing. It looks classy! Behind back is the Stake President's office, with a separate entrance. The family history center (open to the public) is in the back too. Lots of parking, meetings at 9am, 11am, and 1pm every Sunday. Visitors welcome! The 1pm congregation is Polynesian so they speak their own language. You've got to hear them harmonize, their singing is unreal! Goosebumps every time I listen. They do have a translator and headsets available for people who only speak English, so don't be shy! There are also youth (ages 12-18) activities here Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings from 7-8:30pm.

She explained the service and the church community to me. It brought tears to my eyes. Dan, the Pastor was using the actual words of the Bible to show us how to build a bridge to God. It was so encouraging and I saw the Bible in a new way. So simple. It is now several months later and this loving community is enhanced each day. Several young people alternate presenting the message and it brings forth wonderful ideas, so simple, for enriching our lives and those around us. It is a simple, basic church fillled with love, encouragement and the entire community of the church will light you up. I'm over 80 and they watch out for me. This is a spectacular group of young children, teens, 20-50 years olds and seniors. To me any one over 60 is a senior. Come on Sunday at 10:30 am. Music and then messages from 1-2 people. First Sunday of month is Communion and Potluck Buffet. Try it and I'm sure you will like it and be content there! It truly is God's people watching over you. Welcome to a new home!
