Community Gathering

September 20, 2025
Santa Fe, NM

Dearest Santa Fe friends,

You are invited to join us regularly for Enlightening Community Gatherings.

Recently, our community has made significant progress with our Crystal Temple project (crystalearth.org, now called the Enlightening Temple), and we are excited to share some updates. Most of all, it has been a while since we’ve had the opportunity to connect—to enjoy each other’s company and celebrate what is most important in life: relationships.

We hope you will join us to see friends you may not have seen for a while, to make new ones, and to deepen and strengthen our collective community. In addition to the potluck, we may share a group prayer together. We’ll see how the evening unfolds.

RSVP Request
To make sure we have room for everyone, we ask that you reply to this email and let us know whether or not you can join. For those who are coming, we will be in touch to coordinate what to bring. (If you aren’t able to bring anything because of personal logistics, please don’t let that be an obstacle to attending. We expect there will be enough food for everyone.)

Dress
We are asking everyone to dress up! This means different things to each of us, but in the spirit of having the best time possible, wear whatever helps you honor the occasion of being together: ceremonial clothing, an evening dress, a suit, a sport coat, or something else that reminds you of the preciousness of life.

With gratitude,

Matthew, Alessandra, Walter, Ellen, Angela, Bob, Denice, Nancy, Carol, Ken & the whole Temple Community
