LTMC is looking most forward to hosting the Half-day Winter Retreat coming up in a few weeks. Please invite your friends and family to join you for a day of restoration as we prepare for the holiday season. Bring a cup, spoon and napkin to enjoy a warming agent as we take our practice to Paradise Park for walking meditation and enjoy the sanctuary upstairs in The Studio. It promises to be a special day of relaxation, concentration, insight and sweet community. I can think of no better way to introduce our Winter Retreat theme of "Stillness," than with a poem:
Stillness of the Dawn

As I slumber,
perfect peace covers the land.
Bird spreads its wings in flight,
soaring entirely of its own volition.
Tree synchronizes a slow, bending dance
to extend a providential resting place.
Might I,
upon waking-up to stillness,
embrace such intimate rapport?
LTMC looks forward to seeing everyone on December 5 and wishes everyone a treasured Thanksgiving.
