IN PERSON & ZOOM – Shamatha Meditation – AM
The heating system is currently inoperable at the Portland Center, and we are heating the building with space heaters. Please dress warmly — we expect the meditation hall to be around 60 degrees this weekend.
Come join us to celebrate Gwen on their last day as Portland Center Operations Manager as they embark on their career as a Music Therapist! We will share some words in the later part of the discussion period, and then gather in the community room for cake and conversation.
