Great Tree Zen Temple publishes two newsletters each year:  Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter.

The goal of our newsletter is to tell the story of Great Tree. We share stories and challenges of building a sangha and is a wonderful way to get to know Great Tree’s every-day practice opportunities. We supplement the printed pages with supplementary monthly email updates and here on our website.

Here is what you can expect to find:

  • upcoming schedule of events
  • program calendar
  • registration information and forms
  • volunteer opportunities
  • member reports and reflections
  • teachings and writings by Teijo and guest teachers
  • Board of Directors reports and updates

We share the  stories and  the challenges of building a community. It is a wonderful way to get to know more about Great Tree’s growth.
