Hi friends,

This is an announcement about our Advent Series: A Short Meditation for every day of advent, starting today, the first Sunday of Advent. Each Sunday will feature a longer meditation and will be available for everyone. The rest of the days of the week will be shorter, between five and ten minutes, and be available for all of our Patrons. It’s going to be so beautiful to meditate together through this season.

To become a patron, check out the options at http://patreon.com/shekinameditationpodcast

This season has been very full, and we’ve had some farewells from members of our community, so we are building support through patronage. Thanks so much for your support, we truly appreciate it. It all goes toward keeping our community running and free for travelers and spiritual seekers, and toward our office and social projects. Thank you!
