I got a snack bag with a variety of cheese. Sable crackers, and a grap jelly. Sorry I don't have better pictures of cheese I ate it all.... Wowza! Everything I got was amazing. The beautiful ladies by far are a highlight of this place, but the snacks and things you can buy are wonderful too. I was able to listen to the women pray today and it was beautiful. Respect this place. Respect this land and pop on up for a visit.

Luckily, they have only ran out once when we came to visit and shop. You can order ahead if you want to make sure they have them when you come. I have seen this place and visited this place many times. The view never gets old. All worth the drive from Bakersfield for me to come up here.

Wow. We were camping nearby and looked for a church to attend.

So easy to find out when and where to arrive. This place is TOTALLY happening and we would for sure join if we lived in the area. They bend over backwards to give newcomers a clear path to involvement.

Much of the road leading to the Monastery is rough and not paved. So you may not want to drive your sedan here. It is very peaceful and serene. First thing I noticed was the Peace Bell Pavilion. There is an enormous bronze bell. Peace is written in many languages all over the bell. Very cool!! The temple building is impressive both inside and outside. A nice cultural experience. Wonderful place to relax and recharge. It is open to the public. Check out their website for more details.

The grounds are kept up really nice and the meeting room and church are clean and very inviting. I was surprised the first time I walked in the church at how big it is, probably can easily sit 200 comfortably. Now that my son bridged to Boy Scouts I don't think we will be using the church any longer. It was nice and comfortable while we did.

They celebrate social justice work and are very active in their community, as well as internationally. They truly follow in Jesus's footsteps, by caring for ALL people, regardless of citizenship, sexual orientation, religious affiliation, etc. They are not a fundamentalist church, out to convert the world. They also don't preach fear or hate, but rather hope and love. After Pastor Nancy's sermons, I feel called to do my part to help make the world (or my local community) a little bit more just, a little more friendly, more elevated, more free. Thank God communities like this exist.
