CALENDAR | SERVICE DAY

Next Service Day: Saturday, May 17

All Portland area students are welcome to join us for service days. They are held twice a month on Saturday mornings and begin at 8:00 am. There are a wide variety of projects going on at any time, including:

replacing the paving stones in the shrine area,
painting, carpentry, and general maintenance work in the building,
helping someone move,
weeding, mulching and other gardening tasks,
raking and other yard work
general housecleaning
mailings and other office-related tasks.

Participating in service day is a wonderful way to get to know other students, learn a new skill or hone an existing one, and contribute in a tangible way to the welfare of a spiritual community. We work until 12:30 pm, and then all participants are invited to stay for lunch.
