Offered In-Person & Online via Zoom

Please join us this Sunday for our Peer-led program—an opportunity for Sangha members to support one another in practice, explore Dharma themes together, and cultivate a sense of connection in a relaxed and inclusive setting.

The gathering is facilitated by a Sangha member, and includes a lightly guided or silent meditation period followed by discussion and time for personal reflection or group sharing. No registration is required—everyone is welcome to join in person or online via Zoom.
