Every month we meet at a member's home for our sangha meeting and vegetarian potluck. We will recite the Five Mindfulness Trainings and enjoy our monthly meal together. Please e-mail mindfulbreathsanghageorgia@gmail.com for details.

Each year on the first Sunday of November, our sangha offers the Ceremony of Bearing Witness to Mother Earth. We offer this ceremony each year using the teachings from Thich Nhat Hanh's book, Love Letter to the Earth.  His book teaches us that humanity is not separate from the Earth but is one with it, and our personal and collective happiness  and survival are tied to the planet's well-being. 

This is an outdoor event, open to everyone, and it will include live music, readings from the book, and guided silent meditations. Refreshments will be available after the ceremony.

WHAT: Ceremony of Bearing Witness to Mother Earth

WHEN: November 2, 2025
