JOIN US FOR A BOOK STUDY
The Midwest Moon Sangha is beginning a book study twice a month starting with Thay’s book “The World We Have” © 2008 Parallax Press.
Meetings will begin Saturday, September 21, 2019 following the normal sangha gathering. We will plan to cover at least one chapter per meeting. Everyone will be asked to read the chapter prior to the meeting and come prepared to answer two questions regarding the chapter. The questions are:
- What one sentence in this week’s reading had the most impact for me?
- What one thing might we do in the coming weeks as a result of our discussion today?
