IMCW offers the Blessing Circle to comfort and support those experiencing loss, grief, illness or any of the "10,000 sorrows" of this life.
We will gather for a 30-minute service of metta practice and chanting, offering blessings to all in need as we take refuge together in the Buddha, the Dharma and the Sangha. The Circle meets after the Wednesday night class at 9:10 p.m. in the library on the second floor of RRUUC, the second Wednesday of every month.
