9:30 am: Work Practice: Temple Cleaning for the New Year

–
December 28, 2025

In preparation to ring in the New Year, we'll be hosting a Sangha Half-Day Work Day on Sunday, December 28—and we sure can use your help!

We'll start at9:30 AM as usual, with a round of zazen and sangha circle, with words on the new year and the spirit of kiyomeru, the Japanese concept around purifying body, mind and our surroundings. Then we'll get to work together, ending with lunch at 1 PM.

 

Please wear something suitable for working, and we'll provide the rest.

If you're able to join, please email windhorse@windhorsezen.org so we can get a head count for lunch.
