Weekly Schedule

We meet both in-person and online. All White Forest Sangha practice are offered free of charge, but donations are deeply appreciated.

We meet Tuesday and Wednesday evenings as well as Saturday mornings.

Tuesday Evenings

Introduction to Meditation— 7 to 8:30pm

We welcome you to come and experience silent meditation in our zendo – a safe, quiet space designed for meditation and silent contemplation. Seating runs from 7:00-7:15pm. The half-hour meditation is followed by casual conversation until we adjourn around 8:30pm. If this is your first time, please arrive at 6:45pm; this will give us time to ensure you are comfortable in the zendo.

We suggest wearing loose clothing. If you are interested in joining us, please call or text Nicholas at 419-806-9927.
