"Since actions are more important than words...
I want to give you this this Christmas, and throughout the whole year, gifts which will be expressed rather in deeds than in words.

With all my strength and love I will do my utmost to serve you in Christ, that as the days of the New Year go by, we shall all become more dear to the Heart of Christ and a blessing to our Community."

-Sister Frederica Horvath, Foundress, SSSLA

Encino Lake Beautification Fund
Our beautiful lake on the grounds of our Encino property provides multiple opportunities for quiet reflection and sharing. But did you also know it is part of the significant flight pattern of Canadian Geese and other migratory birds? Our lake is one of a very few small bodies of water that contributes significantly to the area's ecosystem, and is home to a myriad of birds, fish and other animal life, including over 50-75 ducks! However, our lake requires approximately $22,000 a year of regular maintenance and service in order for it to stay healthy and to continue functioning as a critical part of our spiritual and natural environment.
