Sunday Service

NOTE:

The Sunday morning Meditation Service remains in progress from 10:00 – 10:45 a.m. Maintaining a quiet environment is very important. Please make every effort to arrive before 10:00 a.m. so you will be seated when it begins.

If you arrive between 10:00 and 10:45 a.m., please wait outside the building or in your vehicle to help maintain a quiet, meditative environment inside the chapel. Thank you for your consideration.

Pot Luck Socials

Following the Reading Service on at least one Sunday each quarter we share a vegetarian meal and have the opportunity to socialize with other members and friends. Please plan to join us.

You are invited to attend a Potluck social on Sunday September 24th after the service. Please bring a vegetarian dish to share.

We are interested in adding some activity in addition to the meal. If you have suggestions or requests please let us know. We might show a DVD from Mother Center.

Longer meditations on Saturday

Periodically the Nashville Meditation Group will have a 3 hour meditation on Saturday mornings from 9:30 to 12:30. There will be periods of chanting each hour to allow attendees to come or go during these periods. If you are interested in knowing when there will be a longer meditation please sign the special sheet on the table in the foyer area or reply to this email to request your email address be added to the notification email.
