Todo Es Dios - About Us

Todo es Dios is nestled on 560 wooded acres of mango groves, gardens, thousands of tropical plants, trees and flowers (some of them rare species), walking meditation paths, and a creek meandering over rocks and through deep pools. Our guests and community members can totally immerse themselves in the sweet scents of wild orchids and hibiscus, the sounds of many birds, Howler Monkeys, frogs

and waterfalls.

Our History

The farm where Todo es Dios is located began 11 years ago when an engineer had a dream to build a sustainable organic working farm in his favorite spot in Costa Rica. Maggie Hill found the farm on the Internet in 2005, and opened a dialogue with the owner. She and the engineer hit it off immediately - he is a farmer and she is a farmer. They think about the farm and its future in the same way. When Maggie saw pictures of the farm, she knew it was hers. She had sat in meditation for the previous six months, visualizing that she was a successful organic farmer in Costa Rica. For years, Maggie has wanted to develop a large agricultural project and she caught the "Costa Rica Bug" the first time she visited there in 2000. The rest of the story is, as they say …. Demonstrating as we speak.

Our Vision

Our intention is to create a spiritual sanctuary and retreat for our community and visitors, as well as teach our spiritual prayer practices in Spanish, and to hold prayer circle meetings twice a week. We plan to have ongoing workshops on Personal Transformation, Prosperity, Sustainable Organic Farming, Relationships, and Creating New Realities. A Celebration of Life is held each Sunday morning, the basic ideas of Science of Mind are taught each Monday evening, and every Thursday a Circle of Prayer is held on the front porch.

Our Community

Our intentional community members include our founder, Maggie Hill, and –

* Anthony Folgleman, a Science of Mind Practitioner as well as a plumber, electrician, builder, boatman, expert fisherman, and all-around computer whiz guy who also speaks fluent Spanish and has expertise working with Latinos.

* Julio and his wife, Linese, and their 12-year-old daughter, Jennifer, have lived on the mango plantation and farm since 2002. Julio is a most capable farm manager, and he brought his family to Costa Rica to escape the oppression of the Columbian government. He is currently learning about organic farming practices. Linese has a thriving organic egg and chicken business, and Jennifer enjoys her two pet goats and horseback riding with Maggie. They have already become good friends.

Our Ministries

Religious Science, also known as Science of Mind, was founded in 1926 by Ernest Holmes (1887-1960) and is a religious movement within the New Thought Movement. In general, the term "Science of Mind" applies to the teachings, while the term "Religious Science" applies to the organizations. However, adherents often tend to use the terms interchangeably. We believe there is no separation between God and (hu)man – that Spirit is ever-present in all beings at all times. We believe that "Wherever I am, God is."
