  WEEKLY UPDATES: JAN 2 19 - DEC JAN 8 , 2017Hope this meets you all well. A New Year is a landmark in our lives and a time for reflection on where we have been, where we are and where we want to go. It's also a time to ponder on our purpose in life, measure goals for success and strive for transformation of heart. To achieve meaning filled success in our lives, we need strength beyond ourselves and association of sincere souls. We also need to resolve to take shelter of God's Holy names and soberly remember that we are one year close to the end of our worldly existence. At the same time we need to meditate on our purpose in life and that will guarantee an eternal life, beyond the temporary existence of this world.
