Another Temple “first”

Today was the first ever Christmas concert in the new Temple of Light…and what a concert it was!

Haven’t had a chance to view the video, but it sure felt good…and the feedback has been through the roof!

Sunday service. Concert prep, concert, and concert cleanup. Choir dinner afterwards in Expanding Light dining room. So…how do you follow up all that inspiration in a way that’s relaxing but still uplifted?

You turn on the Christmas tree lights, sit on the couch with your hubby, and watch the original animated version of How the Grinch Stole Christmas (for probably the 45th time; my favorite Christmas story!). 🙂

It’s here

Tomorrow at 5:30 pm is the first Christmas concert in our new Temple of Light!

I actually feel kind of nervous. Partly because we now have plenty of seating. That means the public is invited, after years of our audience consisting almost entirely of Ananda Village residents, which is basically just performing for family!

I think there’s also a little internal pressure for many of us, because we so much want our performance to measure up to, and be worthy of, this incredible Temple.

What a lovely challenge to have, actually. 🙂
