We are excited about hosting this new event where we grew up. The Redwood Christian Ashram has been part of our lives for over 20 years. We're delighted to have a chance to share what it means to us with folks in the Bay area. We might not have the beautiful Redwood trees, but we're looking forward to experiencing the love of God with open and overflowing hearts!
