Hi There

This is Raksha Penni Helsene. I too, am a board member, but I have been a member of the lighthouse since 1998. One thing I love about the Lighthouse is that no matter how long you have been away, you are always greeted with unconditional love and warmth.

I have learned so much about myself, about meditation, about healing...and also about Quickbooks!! Ha! I am the treasurer for the board...and Quickbooks is my nemesis.

I hope we get lots of comments out here...its a neat idea. Thanks to our webmaster Mutka Tana Dean.

My Experience on the Board of Directors

As your webmaster it seemed that becoming a board member would help me keep our website up to date and continue helping it grow as a central communication source for our spiritual community. Like other board members it's that phone call or discussion at the center where someone will ask you to commit to helping our center continue and grow.

Barbara Blanden was the one who called me and we were having a discussion which led her to ask me if I would consider becoming a part of the board. It made sense because I had felt that I needed to keep in closer contact because of the continual updates for the website.

My experience has been so wonderful. To meet and work with a group of people who are doing whatever is needed to keep our community together is inspiring. I've made some lifelong friends and it keeps me close to growing my spiritual life. The commitment has not been overwhelming and they are a group who is willing to help any other member, it is a shared responsibility.

The elections are coming up soon and I would encourage you to call someone on the board to ask what positions need to be filled. Your commitment, energy and new ideas are what keeps our community vibrant and will help it grow.

For many years this has been my spiritual home and as the years go by I gain a deeper understanding of how much this has affected my life and the deep spiritual relationships I have gained are simply invaluable.

I invite you to add your great energy and strength to the Lighthouse Board of Directors. It has been a truly wonderful experience.

Love and Light,
Mukta Tana Dean

Hello Lighthouse Members

This is the Lighthouse Center Inc. in Whitmore Lake, MI first blog.

I'll be introducing this blog to our board members on Sunday, January 25, 2009. Hopefully it will be a great way to create more communication and light in our healing spiritual community.
