Master Thich Nhat Hanh is known for saying "It's a treat, not a retreat," emphasizing the joy and pleasure that arises during a retreat. Retreats help us come back to ourselves in a deep way. Practicing together creates a web of support that lessens the effort of dwelling in the present moment.
Please join us October 19-21st at the the Marillac Center, in Leavenworth, KS. We are excited because it is so close to Kansas City, has the amenities of a modern conference center, yet maintains a contemplative atmosphere. Single and shared accommodations are available. We are even more excited about the food this year. Some accomplished cooks in our Sangha will be preparing retreat cuisine beyond compare! The retreat flyer for the October retreat is on the Upcoming Events sidebar on our website. Please pass the word around. Cultivating Peace Within promises to be our best retreat yet.
