Dear Community,
In case you are wondering what benefits might exist in having a Sufi teacher,
I received this internet gem from my beloved guide, Murshida Leilah. Enjoy!

And, if that didn’t lift your heart, perhaps Zikr will…

FOURTH OF JULY – Tuesday, the 4th of July – light things on fire to show your team spirit. Give me a “U,” give me an “S,” give me an “A!” I don’t know how I survive the 4th of July without eating hot dogs. I should be sent to Mexico.

earth, chant, dragons

Hi Friends!

Did I tell you I’m heading up “Main Ritual” for Dragonfest this year? Well, I am.
Want to help? I just wrote the ritual… it’s a doozy. Or maybe it’s a total not-doozy… want to help anyway? Please let me know as soon as you possibly can. I’ll need to recruit maybe a dozen or so helpers… and it will be necessary to meet in person at least once ahead of time… maybe twice… to go over songs and walk through it.
Plus… did I tell you there’s an Earth Day celebration this Saturday (April 22nd) at Westland Park Pavilion? Well, there is! I’ll be leading Dances of Universal Peace at 10:30 or 11 AM… and again around 1 PM. Please join us. It’s free. It’s fun. It’s Earth-loving! More info here: https://www.facebook.com/events/1830317453846927/

AND… I’m sure I told you there’s a Chant this Sunday, April 23rd. I’m excited! 7 PM – 1401 W Vine, Fort Collins – $10 suggested donation – singing, singing, singing… la-la-la-la-la…

MOREOVER… I didn’t tell you, but I’m about to: some of us who refuse to grow up are going to ride Go-Karts at Fort Fun at 3 PM this Sunday (the 23rd). $8 a pop. Feel free to join us if you aren’t too much of an adult.

THEN… Sufi Meditation at my house Monday, April 24th – 9:30 AM – for real this time.

FARTHER AWAY… Zikr is still on a weird date in May – Saturday, May 13th – 7 PM – 1939 S Monroe. Don’t forget. $10 suggested donation and dessert potluck.
