Open Door Meditation Community is based in southern Maine. We meet virtually over Zoom every Tuesday and in person on Wednesdays and Sundays in Portland.

All practice levels are welcome.

Welcome

The Sangha’s responses to our work on Open Door’s Guiding Principles
at our May 13 and 14 sits and to the survey sent out to our mailing list
have been compiled, synthesized, and are ready to share.

Please join Open Door on either Wednesday, August 13 in person or Tuesday August 19 online
when the Restorative Practices committee will share
the newly approved Guiding Principles with the Sangha community.

An outline of how the Guiding Principles will be incorporated into our Sangha will be discussed, as well as a brief overview of the Restorative Practices Committee’s ongoing work.
All are welcome to join this celebration.
