We currently have two communities in Southern California.They are both located in San Diego County. We love to have visitors so you would always be welcome. This page describes the Community in Vista. Click on the link below to learn about the Community at The Morning Star Ranch.

We live here in the town of Vista in a big house, still under construction, where our clan of the Twelve Tribes Communities is putting down roots. We're making the grass green and establishing a home for the lonely. If you come during the week you will experience our everyday life. You might work with us in our little garden, or fixing the fence the goats are always trying to knock down. For sure, you would end up around the island in our kitchen, which seems to be the social center of our community. The dishes might accumulate, but this is our home, so we jump in and wash them. Love finds a way, when nothing else can. Love is the substance of our life.

If you like to watch TV, you wouldn't like it here. We're not into television and all the things it portrays as having value. We are a new social order. We like to play music and sing together. We like to have deep, meaningful conversations. What could be greater than connecting your heart to another? And we love our children! They are our future. We do not send them out to play, but we have them involved in every aspect of our life. They are growing up and beginning to lead us as a people. We know they will be greater than their parents, and we rejoice!

Although our life has a deep spiritual foundation, you will not find it the least bit mystical (intangible). We are all engaged each day in meeting the pressing needs. It could be cooking supper for our household, or milking our goats, working on our construction crew, going to the Farmers' Markets to make friends and sell Yerba Maté, or making freepapers and invitations at our little print shop in our adobe building in downtown Vista. Right next door to "The Adobe" we are building café that will be a "Yellow Deli" (that's what we'll call it) where all could feel welcome to spend some time with us, eating good organic food and talking over a glass of Yerba Maté tea.

Our life is extremely busy, like a beehive, but we take time every morning and evening to come together and sing, share from the Bible, and affirm our covenant with our Creator. On Friday night we have a big celebration with dancing and a festive meal because this evening begins the Sabbath. This is an especially wonderful time that we like to share with those who are getting to know us.
