Blue Mountains Retreat Centre July Programs
16 June 2023
Dear Friends
We have a retreat for men in July, as well as an Overcoming Overthinking Retreat, which is a good one for those coming for their first retreat at Leura.
A tip for this month to stay happy:
"Understand your own value. If you don't, others won't either. When you turn your focus of attention within, you will clearly see your inner beauty - a clear mind full of peace and a clean heart full of love".
Warm regards
The Leura Team
We have waiting lists for most events so we would appreciate it if you only book for one event and choose an event you have not attended before.
Thank you for your cooperation.

It is a delight to provide the service report of God's Wonders, a celebration of the 20th Anniversary of Baba's service which has radiated from the Brahma Kumaris course location Lighthouse, Padbury, Perth, Western Australia. The celebration was a means to reveal Baba and also to inspire householders on how a family can create elevated fortune together.
Please download the service report HERE, which has pics, highlights and feedback of the celebration held on Sun, 30th of April 2023. We had the great fortune to have in person blessings of respected jewel, BK Sis Meera, National coordinator of Malaysia, with a special guest of honor, the Consul General of India in Perth, Hon Amarjeet ji Takhi. More distinguished guests and IPs were invited and all joined with joy in the gathering of around 130 souls.

Adding an extra flavour after the above celebration, we had an exclusive gathering at the Lighthouse of around 50 Baba's service companions who have been cooperative in the past.
