Vision for Wangapeka – A Dharma Community Hui – Saturday 14 December
How can we better serve the Wangapeka, as a centre for Awakening, and the needs of the wider community in our rapidly changing world?
What is a wholesome trajectory for Wangapeka, given the various challenges and changes that the world is facing and will continue to face in the next few decades?
What kind of creative support can we each offer, to help the Wangapeka community to collaborate, respond to what needs changing, and assist us all to move in that direction?
If these questions interest you, please join a group of our sangha who will be gathering at Wangapeka to ignite and explore this conversation of change. Your input is most welcome. We will begin to explore resilient and responsive ways to support Wangapeka now, and with the future needs for our centre and community.

Dharma Service Programme – Sunday 15 December
You are also welcome to stay on for Sunday (or attend only for this day) to contribute to the planning for the next iteration of a Dharma Service programme at Wangapeka. Following the experimental “Service as the Path” programme in 2024, we would like to hear the voices of a diverse group who love the Wangapeka and feel connected through service. We value and request your involvement in helping to shape a continuing service community.
