Intentional Community
Visualize a campus for the “School of Life”, an intentional community in Hawaii where everyone is honored as a student as well as a teacher. The ideals of compassion, service, humility and divine friendship imbue every aspect of living. Life is celebrated as an opportunity for continuous physical, mental, and spiritual development.
