Beginning Meditation Practice Group

-
Thank you to everyone who expressed interest and participated in the Beginning Meditation Practice Group! We've enjoyed and appreciated meeting each of you and deepening our practices.

We have now completed the Beginning Meditation Practice Group sessions. Although this is a little ahead of schedule, it seemed like the wisest decision in light of everyone's schedules and needs.

If you'd like to give feedback about the group, you can find a brief survey (nine questions) HERE.

We look forward to meditating together again in the future!

  Our host church, National Avenue Christian Church, is hosting the National AIDS Memorial Quilt from December 1 through 5, 2021, so all Ozarks Dharma Community events will be moved from the Parlor where we normally meet to the upstairs conference room during those dates.  Please enter through the south door on Portland Street, especially if you are bringing food or drink with you.  You will be turned away from the Gallery entrance if you have food or drink with you because of the AIDS quilt, but you may enter through the south door near the stairs with your refreshments. We will return to our normal location for all events starting Monday, December 6, 2021.
