Bodhi Tree favorites, Ken & Dale will open our season with an evening celebrating the healing power of music - songs of balm for a troubled world. Join them for an evening of songs that heal, taken from the Negro Spiritual, the Civil Rights Movement, the Vietnam War era, Broadway, and directly from the church. It will be an evening that will inspire, make you want to sing (and you are welcome to), and hopefully help you with your own healing process. Reception for all with the artists following the concert. Visit: https://www.bodhitreeconcerts.org/anderson-and-fleming

Over the coming year St. Luke's North Park will be offering several films with deep ties to Africa. Most of the films will be directed and filmed in Africa, though some may focus on the diaspora living in other parts of the world. The second film of the year is JUWAA (2021). About the film: Shot in Belgium and the Democratic Republic of Congo, Juwaa is a subtly powerful drama offering African characters rarely seen on screens. Years after a traumatic night, a son and a mother reconcile and slowly peel away the layers of their complex relationship. About the Director -Nganji Mutiri: Nganji Mutiri is an award-winning artist born in Bukavu, DRC and currently living in Belgium. He works in theatre, cinema, poetry, and photography, always looking for connections and perspectives between the singular and the universal.

Sometimes we find belonging in the most unexpected places. And sometimes, we find it buried deep in our own histories — in our own family legacies, as Patty Krawec did.

We are starting a new BSA Female Troop 355 in Spring Valley. We are having our initial Info / Join Night on Tuesday, March 28 @ 7 p.m. at Atonement Lutheran Church, 10245 Loma Rancho Drive, Spring Valley, California 91978. This evening is designed for the prospective female youth & Webelos Cub Scouts of Spring Valley to have a night packed with fun activities for the youth, an opportunity for the girls to ask questions of active Scouts, and see what awaits them in the program. This will be while we give an overview of what to expect for the year and answer questions for the parents.

Please keep in mind that we cannot guarantee lilacs at any time. Agriculture and weather have a mind of their own, and we just do what we can to accommodate the situation! It will be a season of springtime fun!! Hop on the wagon ride and enjoy the views on a scenic nature loop, try your skill with some tomahawk throwing, visit our friends at the petting zoo, enjoy a lively hoedown or pick up an instrument and join the jug band, paint a flower vase to keep, dip your very own lilac themed candle the old fashioned way, and so much more! Our very own Jesse Cross, dance caller and music man extraordinaire, will be playing live during various times to lead any willing kids and adults through the most fun jug band hootenanny you ever did see! Walk through organic lilac groves and enjoy the sweet smells and beautiful views of the surrounding Julian area! We will have some beautifully fragrant lilac stems available for purchase once they bloom and until we run out! Potted lilacs are also available to take home and plant! This old mining town has attracted people from all over because of its rich history, old time rustic charm, and of course the pies. Back in the 1960's, the area that is surrounding Fort Cross was famous for their lilacs. It's our goal to bring that same excitement and experience back to the area! With a few acres of beautiful lilac groves, we look forward to the possibilities! Although this event is perfect for couples and families, we also welcome larger groups (Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, church groups, etc.) to join! We ask that large groups of 15 or more to please call ahead and let us know when you plan to arrive. Stay Connected on Social Media! Instagram & Twitter
