One-day Retreat for Peace

Saturday November 16, 9am to 9pm 

At FoH

Members and friends of Friends of the Heart are welcome to join us for a one-day retreat at FoH on Yonge Street with continuous heart-centred meditation sits from 9am to 9pm. 

Some meditations will be led by FoH founder Catherine Jetsun Yeshe.  Come for the whole day, or as many hours as you can manage.

For this retreat, there is no registration fee, rather donations will be accepted on behalf of charities that FOH has been supporting through this annual event for many years: 416 Drop-in Centre in Toronto, a nunnery in Tibet, and the FoH bursary fund that supports students who need help with retreat costs.

Your kindness and generosity are greatly appreciated by these wonderful centres who share the goal of helping people to heal their hearts.

Donation/sponsorship forms are available at FOH, or can be downloaded from the website, or donations may be made on the through PayPal (see link below).

 

 

Donations and Payments

If you wish to make a donation to Friends of the Heart or to Catherine Jetsun Yeshe, we have setup Paypal to receive payments for audio teachings, memberships and for other activities of Friends of the Heart. We prefer to work through paypal as it is time consuming for a volunteer organization to handle cheques and email credit card orders. You can use Paypal to make secure payments in your own currency. The Canadian dollar amount will be automatically converted for your credit card or bank account.

Please give with a generous heart.

Our bursary fund supports people to come on retreat; general support helps pay the rent; Mantrathon is an annual fundraiser to support local and distant charities as well as our bursary fund; and we have set up a fund to support our founding teacher Lama Jetsun Yeshe.

Please email us to let us know how you would like us to direct your donation. At present, PayPal will accept your donation but not allow you to specify how we are to direct it.
