HEART TO HEART CELEBRATION
VALENTINE'S DAY
Saturday February 14, 2026
Dearest Friends,
From my heart to your heart, you are so wonderful! Please know that I adore you. It has been my greatest pleasure to know God and be guided to create the Network of Light in 1979. And I have loved all my moments with you.
At 87 years young, it is extremely hard for me to consider leaving you to go to a community living situation. That is why it has been almost impossible to get this Valentine's Day invitation out to you.
The Network of Light is coming up on our 47th Anniversary!!! And yes indeed, we are once again celebrating Valentine's Day. Please do join us Saturday, February 14th.

John Wubbenhorst (flutes, keyboards) and Tom Teasley (percussion) will celebrate the Network of Light with love and joy. Tom and John are truly world musicians having participated in many traditions east and west. Tom has toured the Mideast with the US State Department. John has spent many years in India studying with many masters, including the bansuri mater Hariprasad Chaurasia. Tom and John often improvise and play a unique ecletic brand of music that is captivating and healing. Because both Tom and John both have a world music vocabulary, their mustic canoot be defined, except for the pure joy please experience when they play.
Come dance and listen to these world class musicians.
"I am always thankful to music for leading deep into the heart and many spiritual adventures. When I release a record or record some music, I want it to reflect the ecstatic state of being I've felt with my music and spiritual masters. If that feeling is not there, then all the technique and musical sophistication mean nothing. And if that magic is there, even the playing of a few notes can say so much. This journey is not over!"
John Wubbenhorst
Tom Teasley is not just a percussionist - he's a one-man global orchestra. Renowned for his innovative approach to rhythm and sound, Tom fuses jazz, world music and contemporary influences into electrifying performances that defy borders. His music is a living conversation between ancient traditions and cutting-edge improvisation, captivating audiences with a sound that is as adventurous as it is deeply rooted.
