Album Review: Sanctuary by Donna De Lory
SANCTUARY
This CD creates an atmosphere of prayer throughout the 7 tracks taking the listener on a journey to a higher consciousness and bliss. Each track is an original composition by different musicians including De Lory. Several are spiritual chants and a few are blissful melodies transporting one to an elevated state of peace and well being. De Lory plays the harmonium, an instrument that creates a soothing and calming resonance of simple chords. One of my favorites is the well known song, "Sanctuary". The insert has the words to each song and chant, making it easy to join in the spiritual practice of chanting and song. Highly recommended for creating a meditative, and sacred, atmosphere.Free Event: All Is Well 2 - March 29 Program

Science of Mind Minister for 16 years and became the Spiritual Director of the
Center for Spiritual Living in San Jose in 2000.
David Bruner's irreverent sense of humor and “everyday
kind of guy” style makes him adored by his congregation–that and his love of
God, people, and animals, Harry Potter and a peculiar fondness for People magazine, Taco Doritos and great
neckties.
Being raised with two brothers, seven sisters and one bathroom helped
him master the art of effective communication at an early age. His peaceful
childhood memories speak to the unending generosity of his parents, Kenneth and
Dolores. He loves and adores every one of his siblings and their
families—another testimony to his parents’ skill and grace.
Formerly a supermarket checker and scan-coordinator at a Southern
California supermarket, David practiced having a positive impact when working
with people. He made it his mission to ....
