On the second and fourth Sundays of each month, from 9:00 to 11:00 am, we offer the Sunday Morning Children’s Program. This program normally starts in September and runs through the second Sunday in June. In July and August we meet once a month on the fourth Sunday. We require that at least one parent or guardian be present at KCC when their child attends.

Shamatha Meditation and KCC History Presentation – AM

Featured Shamatha Meditation – AM

The foundation of Buddhist meditation is Shamatha, a meditation that develops stable attention which serves as the essential underpinning of all other meditation practices. Instead of the usual Q&A, Dora and Bill will present on the history of KCC, covering the 90's and the first half of Lama Michaels tenure at KCC.
