A Sōtō Zen temple for the LGBTQ+ community, friends and allies in San Francisco's Castro neighborhood
Come and join us this Saturday, June 25, for a Dharma talk by Laurie Senauke, a long-time practitioner from the Berkeley Zen Center. A warm and engaging speaker, Laurie has received Lay Entrustment from Abbot Sojun Mel Weitsman, in addition to being a wife and mother. We’ll have zazen at 9:25, with the talk following at 10:15, and then a vegetarian potluck celebrating Pride weekend afterwards. Please bring something healthy and preferably vegan to share with everyone.
Hartford Street Zen Center will host a Suicide Prevention Workshop on Tues. June 28 from 4:00 – 5:30pm. The workshop is organized in partnership with San Francisco Suicide Prevention and is open to all sangha members.
The workshop is focused on identifying the anxiety and depression that may sometimes lead to suicide as well as developing the communication skills and crisis-intervention techniques necessary to help someone at risk of committing suicide. If you are unable to attend, please visit How to Help Someone on the sfsuicide.org website.
