Dear Friends of Mount Saviour,

"The Everyday" is available on DVD or VHS.  The DVD includes several bonus features including a photo gallery filled with pictures of Mount Saviour throughout the years, additional psalms from the offices, beautiful footage of Mount Saviour in all four seasons and the complete audio from Compline (night prayer).  To see clips from "The Everyday", please, visit www.spookytruth.com .

We are deeply grateful to the members of the Mount Saviour community forgranting us the access necessary to complete this film.  One of the goals of the film was to bring the rythm of life at Mount Saviour closer to its visitors and friends, and we hope we have accomplished that.  Thank you in advance for your consideration.
