KPC is in a thank you mode! In a posture of giving back to the community, we will hold a “Walk for Those Who Can’t” on Saturday, June 12, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Members (and friends) of the KPC community will spend four hours in continuous relays of prayer around the Enlightenment Stupa (the one closest to the temple). The idea is to walk for those who can’t circumambulate–either because of distance, health, or ignorance of the opportunity.

We will do a continuous reading of the names given us to pray for, including those already in our prayer book, and each one of the donors who gave in our recent appeal to save the tempe. We invite you to submit names as well (no intentions, please, as they can increase the length of an already lengthy process). You can submit names by writing to kpcprayerwalk@gmail.com.

Lunch will be available for a nominal fee at the end of the event, courtesy of the Burmese American Collective. The Burmese-American community will be featured this year in the Smithsonian Folklife Festival, and members are raising money to support the performers. KPC is delighted to support this community, who have supported us in many ways, especially during our recent emergency appeal!
