Where: Luke House, 310 S. Ingersoll, Madison, WI
When: First Sunday and second Tuesday of each month, 5 - 7 pm.
There are a group of four
devotees who regularly help out at a local meal program twice a
month although other members of the satsang also come at times.
It is a special kind of program, however, called Luke House.
The number of guests ranges from about 50 to over 150, not all
guests are homeless. Some are employed people with low incomes who
can’t afford food after paying for shelter. Some prefer to
eat in a community atmosphere rather than alone.
Favorite Recipes:
» Lasagna
» Organic Salad
» Milk
» Bread
» Cookies
» Baklava
The philosophy of Luke House is unusual, as each group is asked
to prepare a meal as wonderful as they would serve to guests in
their own homes and to practice understanding how we are no different
as human beings from those we serve that night - we eat the same
food along side everyone else. It has taken me many years of serving
at Luke House to begin to understand and take to heart this philosophy.
We are so used to dividing up the haves and the have-nots - it
is a wonderful place for Amma's children to try to put into practice
Her acceptance of everyone!
