Days
of Extended Meditation
We schedule Saturday "Sesshins"
or extended meditation periods during the year. Such periods are announced
a few weeks in advance.
Our next Zazenkai will again
be at the Episcopal Church of the Epiphany on Saturday, August 9, 2008.
Maria Betancourt will be coordinating. Dale Erwin has agreed to help
in the afternoon with packing up but Maria will need help in the morning
to set up the room at the Church. If you think you can make it to ZenSpace
at 7 a.m. on that day please contact Maria
at woodsyladym@comcast.net.
Please contact
us and we'll keep you updated about ZenSpace events via email announcements.
