Change Happens
with Lennie Kronisch
Sunday, May 5: 10:30am-12pm
The seasons change, our bodies change, the weather changes...and life is full of unexpected, sometimes unwelcome ups and downs. We can develop a mindset that can ride the waves of ever-present change and use them to grow and evolve spiritually. This morning gathering will include a brief talk, meditation and time for questions and discussion, followed by refreshments. All are welcome.
