Dear Everyday Zen sangha and friends, Our fourth annual Fall Bay Area Practice Period is set to begin Sunday September 28, 2008, to run until Sunday, November 30, 2008. For the first time we are including an option for long distance participation, so if you're interested in joining, please follow this link to the new Practice Period page for more information.
And here's a link to a nice feature article in from the Marin Independent Journal about Norman and SAILING HOME. If your local papers run articles about Norman's visits, please send us the links, so we can share them. Thanks to all for the ongoing feedback and support for the new website. We invite you to help us improve it by sending us an email, reporting any bugs, problems, or errors that you come across. And we're always looking for volunteers to help with proofreading, photography, and site maintenance, so please let us know if you'd like to get involved. ~ EDZ web team |
