Dear Friends
We are happy to report that Mother Center has signed the contract with Niagara Builders, Inc. to begin phase I of the building renovation project. SRF is also finalizing the contract with the architect which means the building permits will follow shortly thereafter. The building renovation team has continued to remove walls and electrical fixtures in preparation of Phase I. In order to fund this project we will request funds from Mother Center. Our Building Fund at Mother Center has grown to over $162,204.83. Thank you for your support and continued prayers.
In Divine Friendship,
Washington DC Managing Council.

Heavenly Father Come to Us
Mahavatar Babaji.
"Heavenly Father, we feel thy presence within the cave of our minds, in the nook of our feelings, in the garden of our love. Fill us with the aroma of Thy presence. Break the stars, break the blue, break the thoughts and feelings and show us Thy presence within us around us--everywhere. Thou are just behind the stars, just behind the blue heavens, just behind the atmosphere, just behind every human being. Teach us to feel Thee just behind our thoughts, just behind our feelings, just behind our love. "
