"Cultivate Peace Within"
The Southeastern Buddhist Retreat Center's Inaugural Annual Meeting
The Southeastern Buddhist Retreat Center (SEBRC) was founded in 2024 to be a self-sufficient center for teaching, learning and healing. Through immersive programs and retreat opportunities, SEBRC will empower people to transform themselves by cultivating inner peace, enabling them to carry that transformative influence out into their communities.

SEBRC held a very successful kickoff event in Fall 2024. Now, SEBRC's officers are planning to share reports about our activities over the past year. We hope you will join us to hear featured speakers Ayya Marajina Bhikkuni and Nancy Lasseter, to learn more about our plans, and to find out how you may help our efforts to create a community that fosters compassion, understanding and respect for all beings.
