Deming Zen Group

Last Saturday, we sat our second one-day retreat.

This time we convened at the Rancho de la Paz, a private residence a few miles south of Deming that is designed and operated as a retreat center for all faiths.  Six of us sat in a beautiful stone chapel on the property, and did our walking meditation outside.  We ate an informal lunch that included a vegetarian soup, salad, brown rice, and Korean-style corn tea. 

At the suggestion of our host, the group is sending a donation to the Missionaries of Charity in gratitude for use of the facility.

We already have a couple of sign-ups for our January retreat, from as far away as Arizona.  We are aiming for at least 10 to join us January 16 and 17.
