About this Event

In-Person and Online!


It’s back! After a short hiatus and continuing a KTC tradition, we will meet at 10 AM Christmas morning in-person and online for a Chenrezig chant led by Lama Kathy Wesley, to bring light and goodness into our homes & hearts on a day that is sacred to our Christian brothers and sisters.

Chenrezig is the bodhisattva of compassion, who made the radical vow to remain in Samsara (cyclic existence) until all beings have been liberated.

After the one-hour chant, feel welcome to stay for a light potluck brunch and conversation in the community room. This portion of the event will be in-person only.

If you’re staying for the potluck, please bring a vegetarian brunch-appropriate dish to share - no specific signup for this potluck, here are some ideas -

  • Fruit, veggie, or cheese platter
  • Salad (green salad, pasta or grain salad, etc.)
  • Egg-based dish (quiche, frittata, etc.)
  • Breads & spreads
  • Sweet treats or light dessert
  • Donuts or pastries

As a reminder, KTC is always vegetarian and alcohol-free. As potlucks return to KTC events (perhaps more regularly), please ensure dishes contain no meat, poultry, fish, seafood, or alcohol. Vegan dishes aren’t required but are appreciated by some sangha members.

We look forward to celebrating with everyone who can join us in-person or online!
