New Year’s Retreat

New Year’s Retreat
30 December – 1 January
with Brahmachari Jemal & Retreat Team

“The path may be sunlit by opportunities or dreary with trials, but remember to try your utmost, and then try again and again after you think that you have done your best and can do no more. After making such an effort, then, out of the gloom of mysteries, the all-illuminating Light of Divine Guidance will emblazon your path… Hope and faith in the Divine guidance of your consciously-initiated, continued efforts for material and Spiritual success will quickly lead you to your goal, already dimly visible through the Portals of the New Year.” — Paramhansa Yogananda

Please join us as we celebrate the coming of the New Year. In this Weekend Retreat we’ll focus on Yogananda’s teachings about learning our lessons from the past. Then we’ll discuss using our will power to call on God’s grace to guide us forward.
