Thanksgiving Dinner ~ Thanksgiving Weekend Retreat
“Give thanks for your gifts and growth & send the energizing wisdom of gratitude throughout the planet for the benefit of all.” ~Venerable Dhyani Yawahoo
Thanksgiving 2024 - Join Amina and Arif, Mellen Kennedy and Abode Friends for a relaxing weekend of eating, dancing, sacred practice and creating together.
The Weekend Will Begin on Thursday with a Traditional Abode Community Thanksgiving Dinner~
Over the weekend we will have space set up for contemplation, art and craft activities, as well as Dances of Universal Peace, and Zikr. The beauty of Autumn at the Abode offers time for rest and renewal, as we attune to this season of gratitude.
