God knows what He is doing.
I love the Old Mission Santa Barbara. As a child it was so regal, almost glamorous compared to its sister in our town of Lompoc, the Mission La Purisima. As I learned to appreciate the history and "grand design" of the missions, I realized they possess a deeper common thread of beauty, and each has its own character that defines it and its purpose. None is better than another, in fact, the Mission Santa Barbara has allowed me to love La Purisima, and the other missions even more... it has revealed the uniqueness of each.
I cannot imagine a more amazing place for REAL to have its first public display for sale than the Santa Barbara Missions Retreat Center and Gift shop. This has been an honor. Thank you to Sister Susan and the gift shop for their affirmation and support!
Tonight we realize our second invitation to display REAL for sale is at another heavenly and sacred place. Eve at Sweet Earth Chocolates in San Luis Obispo set the books on display to our delight! Sweet Earth has mission projects of their own, their chocolate is out of this world! Fair Trade and organic and perfection! Check them out at:
