the lighthouse band is an adventure through th' spiritual and physical wasteland that we've made of our home. One step at a time we seek to turn that wasteland into a garden... we like playing music with friends... we want to build community... we want to sing songs from our hearts to God~ sing~along songs that others can sing along with from their own hearts... we want to think outside the box of who the world tells us to be, and be only children of God~ our true selves~ and inspire others to do the same...
we want to seek social justice... we want to respect people and creation in everything we do... we want to live more sustainably~ more simply~ more peacefully~ more humbly~ more joyfully~ and inspire others to do the same... we want to ride our bikes more... we want to grow rooftop gardens... we want to make beautiful and useful things from garbage... we want to make our own clothes... we want to make art and music... we want to be alive
we want to keep meeting new friends... we want to cook dinner together... to have coffee and tea together... we want to inspire and be inspired...
we believe in family... we believe in community... we believe in restoring humanity...
Yes Yes! Our first wade in the water! I'm so glad we made it out and have started this venture! I look forward to many valuable events to come! Lets keep it goin'!
I've been meaning to do this for some time; I'm going to send out Biblical quotes periodically to friends. Today it is --- Jesus said, "What so ever a man sows, that is what he shall reap". Also said, "The measure we give is the measure we shall receive". ---- ;"Blessed are the peace makers for they shall inherit the Earth". (And other words of importance and sustenance. )
We are so happy to find you guys again, and sooo excited that you two also have a little boy to lug around. We are all very fortunate, very blessed. All the best to you guys, let's stay in touch
