Our mission is to promote greater harmony among human beings, bring forth compassion, and nurture future generations to build more caring communities.  We believe this mission can be actualized through a widespread participation of individual service, and the thoughtful reflection that accompanies it.  We believe that a service orientation to life provides all people with the possibility of joy and peace.  Because of this, we focus our work on nurturing service, especially in young people, and in promoting a certain kind of service that is based upon the alignment of an individual’s heart, mind and actions.

• What is Service?
  Rather than being a particular kind of action, we see service as the result of a particular type of intention.  We see service as a combination of both the external actions we take in the world, and the internal motivations that drive our actions. MORE >>



• Harmony within Yourself
  Exploration of the self is the most difficult, and yet the most accessible in this view of service.  Every individual can begin to explore one’s service. To begin this reflection process, imagine yourself as a tree. MORE >>



• Alignment within Yourself
  Most of us can relate to the feeling in our gut when we are doing something (action) that we know we don’t agree with (mind).  This is the feeling of being out of alignment. MORE >>

• Harmony with Others
  Each individual has a mind, a heart and action. To be in the greatest alignment, they must practice developing a good relationship among their own mind, heart and action and then they must be conscious of adjusting their thoughts, feelings and actions to be in harmony with others. MORE >>

• Harmony within Groups or Communities
  We believe alignment is possible between communities when people focus on their shared core values.  We believe that all people have a desire for happiness and for the experience of living fully. MORE >>
