Free

Saturday November 12, 2016 8:00 – 11:00 am

Join us (and other Buddhist and Christian denominations) in a gentle walk down Heights Esplanade. Every fall in multiple cities, Buddhist Global Relief organizes walk events to help raise funds for programs that provide direct aid, develop sustainable food production, promote education for girls and women, and give women opportunities for right livelihood. Registration begins 8am, the walk itself at 9am.

This year Bhikkhu Bodhi, picture of Bhikkhu Bodhia renowned monk and scholar – and the founder of Buddhist Global Relief will come to Houston to lead the walk. Bhikkhu Bodhi will offer other teachings in Houston. Stay tuned, times and dates of other events will be posted as more information flows in.

You will soon be able to register to participate in the walk here:
Once registered to participate in the walk, you will be provided with a link that you can send to your friends and family to ask for their support. Updated information will also be posted at the above link. Donations by cash or check are also accepted and can be arranged by emailing Gyōshin Dan Le . Everyone is invited to participate by registering to walk, donating, or volunteering!
May all beings be happy, may they be joyous and live in safety, and may they be free from suffering.
