We meditate for half an hour, followed by an optional time for sharing and conversation after meditation. No problem if you want to just meditate and then leave. Chairs are available in the meeting hall. However, if you prefer to use your own chair, blanket, cushion or bench, you are welcome to bring it. The meetings have recently moved indoors and meet in the Parish Hall at the rear of the church.
Those who regularly attend the in-person meetings have developed a masking policy for the time we are meeting indoors. The community levels of covid will be checked each time we publish the newsletter. When community levels are low; masks will be optional. When community levels are medium or high, masks will be required.
Currently, the covid community levels are low in Benton County so masks are optional.
However,please bring a mask to all in-person meditation sessions in case there is an attending member with greater vulnerability. If there is an attending member that feels more comfortable with everyone masking, we will all mask in support of the most vulnerable among us.

May 27, 2022(1 event) – 
Please join us Friday evening as we welcome Meditation Teacher Suere Sala for a meditation and talk on "Appreciating the Liberating Gift of Anger". Description: Anger often gets a bad rap in Dhamma communities, but anger is a normal and natural part of being human. We often blame anger rather than investigate the challenging nature of the moment. When we investigate it, however, we can see that anger can show up as a necessary aspect of being part of the human race. At the same time, anger can mask deeper avoidance of greed, hatred, and delusion. During this weekend retreat, we will explore these two distinctions of anger and navigate toward cultivating the wisdom and gift of healthy anger and abandoning unhealthy anger. Tuere is one of the guiding teachers of Seattle Insight Meditation Society and a graduate of the Insight Meditation Society Teacher Training Program. Tuere recently joined the Spirit Rock Retreat Center governance team, where she serves as a member of the Guiding Teacher Council and Board of Directors. She regularly teaches at Spirit Rock, Cloud Mountain, Insight Meditation Society (IMS) and urban sanghas throughout the country. Participants are encouraged to support Tuere's work by providing a donation online using PayPal, see The event will be online using Zoom, from 7:30 pm until 9:00 pm. No registration will be needed for the Friday evening talk and meditation and there will be no fee to attend. Join Zoom Meeting
