A beautiful upwelling of generosity, energy, cooperation, and good humor has given the Hermitage a safer bike trail crossing, an easier to find driveway, a new walking path, and lots more wood neatly stacked in the woodshed. Everything on the list got done, and we didn't even need to get out the headlamps!
Thank you, thank you, thank you...

| Community Work Day Sunday, December 4th, 9am-5pm We have a few work projects at the Hermitage that would be good to finish before going into our Winter Retreat. If you're willing and able to give us a hand, we would be very appreciative. Below is a list of jobs we could use help with. 1) Setting posts for some new hermitage signs. 2) Clearing brush along bike trail to improve visibility for vehicles entering our driveway.
3) Preparing firewood - chain sawing, splitting and stacking. 4) Creating a ground level walking path at the senior monks kuti. 5) Framing the deck at the near kuti, and working on framing for the walking path. 6) Leaf raking and gardening. If you plan to come, please let us know via email or the contact form. If you are unsure, please just come spontaneously if you can! Feel free to join for as much or as little of the day as you like.
You're welcome to join in the meal offering. Food can be prepared at 10:30, and we'll all pause for a potluck meal at 11. The Hermitage Monks |
