Join us for our annual Holiday Party (Zoom-version). It may be virtual, but it will be real: a chance to see familiar friends, to meet new people, and, after a difficult year, wish everyone – and all beings – well in the new year to come. The annual tradition of sharing talent continues, with sangha volunteers offering a poem, a song, a piano piece, the chanting of the Four Noble Truths in Pali.
You don’t have to bring anything but your self, but are welcome to bring tea or other beverage to sip. If you are so inclined, feel free to create whatever festive atmosphere you wish in your Zoom square.
You are encouraged to sign up in advance for our planning purposes [see Confirm RSVP button below]. But if you don’t decide until the last minute to come, you will still be most welcome.
And if you muster up the courage to share music or a poem or prose or some other talent, or if you have questions about the event, please contact Margaret Buss at bussmlou@gmail.com.

At the bottom of this page, enter the number of people planning to attend and select the button “Confirm RSVP”.

After you submit your RSVP, watch for an email with a subject of “Your tickets from Sacramento Insight Meditation“. The email includes the link to join the party. Should you need to phone into the party without video, the zoom details are also listed below:
