Friends, I hope we can see each other at some point this year. Please review the list below to see the live and virtual events that I have confirmed for 2024.
The events are listed by date, followed by location (online or in person), sponsoring organization, and the topic of the retreat or talk. If the topic is linked, you can click on the link to register. Later events in the year have not been confirmed and/or are not yet open for registration, so please check back for more information as it gets closer to the date. I’m listing those events here so you can save the dates of the ones you’re interested in.
Please note that some of these events will sell out, so if you see one that interests you I encourage you to go ahead and sign up for it. Also, if there’s no event near you, please recommend me to your local church, monastery or retreat center. I’m currently booking events for 2025, so perhaps your local venue would like to host me. Click here to learn more about having me come visit your community.
Finally, please note that in addition to the programs listed below, I host a twice-monthly Zoom call for interspiritual meditation and contemplative conversation, open to all Patreon members — so if that interests you, sign up today by clicking here: anamchara.com/patreon.
