[Downtown Dharma Listserve] No class this Sunday & Announcements for 2018

Greetings!

Please note there's no class this Sunday, November 26th. The schedule of classes for the remainder of 2017 is below.

• November 26 - No class
  
• December 3 - Gretchen
  
• December 10 - Kristin
  
• December 17 - La
  
• December 24 - No class
  
• December 31 - No class
  

Also, if you weren't at our last gathering on November 19th, Kristin and Kaira Jewel led us in a group contemplation about how the sangha is moving forward. 

• Suggestions from sangha: Suggestions offered by those in attendance included more peer-led gatherings and regularly mentioning the financial structure. On that last note, for each class, $60 goes to rent and 10% of the remainder goes to IMCW for overhead.
  
• Teacher changes: Incoming teachers Devin and Linda introduced themselves. They'll be both leading and coordinating the classes starting in 2018. Kristin and Klia will still be teaching regularly. Hugh, La, and Kaira Jewel will be stepping back, though may still teach on occasion. If you're just now learning of these shifts, you might feel surprised. I hope you'll feel free to express reactions that you'd like held in community during our gatherings.
• We're moving! Starting with our first class in 2018, on January 7th, we'll be moving to the private community room at the Potter's House in Adam's Morgan. This move was precipitated by logistical issues at the Church of the Holy City, such as not being able to keep the door open and temperature control issues.

I feel so much gratitude for those who've kept this class going. Most recently, sangha members Scott Drewes and Erin Brantley, and outgoing teacher La Sarmiento. Thank you!

Kind regards,

Klia
