Our Story

A place to share your hopes, strengthen your faith, and celebrate the miracles unfolding all around you.

Ancient Wisdom. New Thought. Living Truth.

Light on the Mountains Center for Spiritual Living is a welcoming spiritual community in the Wood River Valley, dedicated to helping people discover practical spiritual tools and the inner Power that can transform lives and help make the world a better place.

Rooted in the Science of Mind philosophy founded by Dr. Ernest Holmes, our teachings draw from ancient wisdom, modern science, and the shared truths of the world’s spiritual traditions. We offer a practical, uplifting approach to spiritual living that supports healing, personal growth, and a deeper connection to the Divine.

Our center was founded in 1987 by Rev. Sara Donesley, whose vision brought this teaching to the Wood River Valley. As an affiliated member of Centers for Spiritual Living, we are part of a global movement of spiritual communities devoted to awakening consciousness and inspiring lives of meaning, compassion, and purpose.

At Light on the Mountains, we honor the divine presence within every person. We are an inclusive community where people of many backgrounds and beliefs come together to explore, grow, and belong.

Whether you are seeking deeper meaning, spiritual support, healing, or a like-minded community, there is a place for you here.

This is a place to share your hopes, strengthen your faith, and celebrate the miracles unfolding all around you.
