AIMC Quarterly
Half-Day Retreat & Potluck
Saturday, April 5, 2025
9am - 1pm
Atlanta Friends Meeting House
701 West Howard Avenue, Decatur
We continue to live in a world that is both challenging and beautiful. It can be helpful to take a longer pause from time to time to rest, nourish, and recalibrate.
Please join us as we intentionally set aside a few hours to practice in community. Through silent and guided meditations and a couple of dharmettes given by Susan and Stephanie, we will share in the dhamma with each other.
At the end of the retreat, we will break noble silence to share a potluck, plant-based meal, practicing compassion for all living-beings.
