“Spiritual freedom is growing into a state of more godliness. Becoming more aware of the presence of God. How does one do this? By becoming aware of the lessons behind one's everyday experience.”
—Harold Klemp, Spiritual Leader of Eckankar, Call of Soul

- Opening One's Heart to Love

- What Is Spiritual Freedom and Why Should One Care?
- Divine Love, Spiritual Protection, Inner Peace—Sing HU for All One Does

- Transforming One's Life with the Light and Sound of God

Saturday afternoon will also feature a 20 minute Community HU Song

“HU is woven into the language of life. It is the Sound of all sounds. It is the wind in the leaves, falling rain, thunder of jets, singing of birds, the awful rumble of a tornado. . . . Its sound is heard in laughter, weeping, the din of city traffic, ocean waves, and the quiet rippling of a mountain stream. And yet, the word HU is not God. It is a word people anywhere can use to address the Originator of Life.”
—Harold Klemp, Spiritual Leader of Eckankar
