vendors opened for business. Soon after, came the opening ceremonies, and opening rendition of ‘My Sweet Lord” performed by The Ron Goiso Band. Then came the first two keynote speakers: Aluna Joy and Raphael Cushnir. They were both amazing.

The second day included enough breathtaking moments to fill a book. It began with an amazing performance by TranZen, which can be heard on the Conference CDs. Then came some powerful moments during the morning ceremonies leading up to a memorable lecture by the renowned John Randolph Price. It was easy to see why he is considered to be one of the originators of the modern new thought movement.

Later that day everyone enjoyed a lecture by Michael Mirdad, which focused on understanding the purpose to life’s tests.

This was followed soon after by a ten-minute UFO display, as a large red ball entered the scene, changed color to green and back to red, while also changing directions, until moving away.

Then the official itinerary began on Friday when the colorful and diverse

The keynote lectures began with Keith Varnum, who ended up being a favorite to many. Then, the finale for the day and the weekend was a channeling by Emmanuel through Pat Rodegast. This was clearly a conference highlight and confirmed why this is one of the only channels to continue to maintain popularity and integrity.

The conference ended with a live group song of “Let it Be”. Then, for the first time in the ULC’s history, another gathering took place Sunday night

It was a dinner, circle with songs, and a closing beach meditation-which for some, was considered the most powerful part of the weekend.
