Monthly Meditation Class
Given the magnitude of the stress present in the world today and the stress created by our own personal issues, Chris Mason is offering free meditation classes at the Heart of Longmont. All are welcome and invited to learn more about this ancient skill that has been a calming refuge for thousands of years. Many types of meditation will be covered with a focus on Buddhist and Christian practices. No experience is necessary to join! Come join us and give meditation a try!
Please see the Weekly Pulse or contact the church office for class dates.
