Program Description

Event Details

Katherine Tingley, a medium and clairvoyant, continues to have a childhood vision of a white city on a sundown sea. While serving the poor at her Do-Good Mission in NYC, she encounters William Q. Judge, a mesmerist and leader of the American Theosophical Society and he convinces her to become his student. After his passing, Katherine assumes leadership of the Society, eventually establishing Lomaland—a sacred space of learning, artistry, and divine harmony, built on a barren peninsula of what is now Point Loma Nazarene  College. However, betrayals, lies, and libels result in a monumental court case that ultimately decides her future and the fate of the white city on a sundown sea.
