The Undefended Heart with Gail Derin & Gail Vinson
The Undefended Heart with Gail Derin & Gail Vinson

Paradoxically, the undefended heart, opens a space for safety. It is possible to have an open heart, even in the most difficult situations. We will explore, in good times or bad, how living from a spacious heart can offer us freedom, and a deeper intimacy with all things. 

Join the Gails, Paula Mandella, and Ann Roach for an evening of music, poetry, reflection and meditation.

Community salad supper at 6:00pm, service begins at 7:00pm.
