[Downtown Dharma Listserve] Continuing Efforts to Build Community - All Souls Downtown Dharma Sangha

Dear All Souls Sangha Members:
 
In recent months, we have discussed various ways to build community within our Sangha. This past May, we met with Hugh and discussed ways to assist him in the facilitation of the group. A few members of the Sangha subsequently met to refine and narrow specific suggestions that we could share with Hugh and other teachers of our group. We have highlighted three broad topics that we have since shared with Hugh, including:
 
*recommendations regarding the format of the Sunday night sit;
*desires to deepen practice beyond what is currently offered in the sits; and
*opportunities to assist in logistical and administrative aspects of the Sangha.
 
The attached notes from that meeting provide further details and context.
 
This upcoming Sunday (7/1), before our weekly sit at All Souls, we will meet with Hugh to continue this discussion.  If you are interested in  participating in this meeting, please feel free to attend.
 
Here are the specific details:
 
What: Continuing Discussions on Building Community within the Downtown Dharma Sangha
When: Sunday, July 1, 2012 at 4 PM

We hope you can join us as we continue to build our sangha!
