Cloister Area Inauguration a Big Success

This past weekend we celebrated the completion of our cloister area buildings and grounds. Dhamma talks were given by Luang Por Liem, Luang Por Viradhammo, Luang Por Jundee, Rev. Heng Sure, Ajahn Jayasaro, Ajahn Sona, and Ajahn Kongrit. As well as Luang Por Liem, Ajahn Sucitto, and Ajahn Achalo before and after the event. Many hundreds of people gathered over the long weekend and enjoyed several days of Dhamma talks, practicing meditation together, and sharing the fellowship of our extended community.

We wish to extend our gratitude to all who made this event, and this building, a very successful event, including Luang Por Liem and all of the senior monks from Thailand and North America, and Luang Por Pasanno and the Abhayagiri community.

We especially appreciate all of the extended lay community and volunteers who helped in so many ways: the many offerings, both material and financial, and the offerings of service during the ceremony itself. It takes a “village” to make something like this happen, from cooking to parking and everything in between.

Anumodana to all!
