We are very happy to announce the next visit by our teacher, Roshi Lawson Sachter. It is a special visit in that he will be with us for 2 weekends (and the week in between) . So far we can plan for the following: Saturday, February 25th we will have an All Day Sitting – a final schedule for the day will be sent later, but we usually start at 8 am or 9 am and end at 4 pm. Sunday, the 26th, we will start our morning in our Zendo and then all who would like to, will go over to the UU building where Roshi will give a talk to their congregation. We will likely invite that congregation to visit our Center following their meeting. From Thursday, March 2nd through Sunday, March 5th, Roshi will lead a retreat (sesshin) at the Center. We are limited to 16 participants for sesshin, so let Ken know asap, at clearwaterzen@gmail.com, if you are interested in participating. The schedule and application for sesshin are available on our “Intensive Retreat (Sesshin)” page at http://www.clearwaterzencenter.org/sesshin.html The UU has given permission for us to use their classrooms as dorms, so it will be possible for us to stay at the Center the entire sesshin.
