SUMMARY:Refugee Welcome Kit Drive
DESCRIPTION:BDC is a collection site for Gallatin Refugee Connections Refugee Welcome Kit Drive. We have opted to collect items for their Kitchen Kits. Read more about the drive below (source: Gallatin Refugee Connections) \nThis March\, Gallatin Refugee Connections —in cooperation with Soft Landing Missoula\, Lutheran Family Services (LFS)\, and the International Rescue Committee (IRC)— is sponsoring a collection drive to help refugee families start new lives in Missoula and Billings. \nMost refugees arrive with next to nothing—sometimes just the clothes on their backs.

SUMMARY:Bozeman Insight Community
DESCRIPTION:Thursdays\, 6:30 – 8:00 pm\nIn person and via Zoom \nBozeman Insight Community (BIC) is a welcoming community that offers the Buddha’s priceless teachings on wisdom and compassion to all those who seek them. Centered on a commitment to personal practice  we support the development and expression of our inherent wisdom  and compassion for the benefit of all beings. \nThe program usually begins with a short teaching to introduce the practice and provide some instruction. Then there is a lightly-guided 30-minute meditation\, followed by tea\, Q&A\, and discussion. We open and close the evening with short chants\, which are provided and completely optional. \nAll are warmly welcome to drop in and join us. No prior experience necessary. If you’d like to talk to one of the leaders prior to attending for the first time\, please email us and we’ll connect. We look forward to meeting you and welcoming you to our sangha. \nWhen in person\, service dogs\, lap babies and school-age children are welcome. There are places in the room and nearby where kids can hang out or do homework. Parents can relax about any disturbance this may cause – our community is not fussy about meditation rooms being super silent (ambient noise is a chance to practice with the conditions and cultivate equanimity). We’d rather have you with us than strive for “perfect” conditions (which don’t exist). \nBIC Leadership\nCouncil Member – Sandy Kindt\nCouncil Member – Megan Higgs\nCouncil Member – Marilyn Raffensperger \nFor leader and council member bios\, more information about this group\, and to see program updates\, please click this link to go to the BIC’s website.
