Dear Bodhisattva Family,

Join us for a weekend of inspiration, sharing experiences and learning about Master’s Dharma and the Tzu Chi spirit--in English! Spiritual Care and Training Department, in collaboration with the English Training representatives for NE, NW, Western, and PI regions, is excited to invite you to Tzu Chi USA English Spiritual Resource Retreat 2015. The retreat will be held at Tzu Chi USA HQ, San Dimas on July 17-19, 2015. The theme for this year’s retreat is

Back to the Roots - Sincerity and Love

Everyone is welcome! We would like to especially invite English-speaking trainees and volunteers, volunteers interested in English volunteer training, mentoring or outreach, Directors and volunteer leadership, and TIMA volunteers.

The program includes activities and presentations on Tzu Chi’s history, spirit and philosophy, a peek into the English programs in the different Regions, insights about the activities of our Four Missions, discussions and sharings, and a demo of the “Gratitude, Respect and Love” volunteer training program that is being adopted around the US! Plus, Saturday night will feature a cultural feast with traditional vegetarian treats and great entertainment!
