It’s that time of year again where we have our annual One-Day 8 Precepts Summer retreat. Retreats are rare and wonderful opportunities to dedicate this time to our spiritual growth and practice. The 8 Precepts retreat serves as an opportunity to dedicate the day to living life like a monk or nun. The retreat follows the major daily practices, study sessions, chore work, and other activities of the monastics.
This year’s retreat theme is Letting Go: Working with Attachments
The retreat is on Saturday, July 28, 2025 at 6am-6pm. Registration is required. Please register with the form below.
The retreat is FREE to attend. A $20 is appreciated to help cover costs of food and supplies. Donate now.
