Harvest of Peace

September 22

Harvest of Peace, held around the time of the autumn equinox, is an opportunity for local communities to gather, hear teachings by Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche, and celebrate the riches of our local cultures and heritage. The Sakyong addresses the international community through a live broadcast delivered through a telephone link with Shambhala Centers around the world.  Please register with us and join the celebrations.  We will gladly accept any offerings of generosity.  Suggested donation is $15.
