An Invitation to Design/Lead an Affinity Group
One key element of Mountain Stream’s Community Building efforts includes the opportunity for sangha members to both participate in and/or design and lead an Affinity Group.

Definition of a Mountain Stream Meditation Affinity Group: Affinity Groups arise organically from within the Sangha and are led by a Sangha member(s) to increase participants’ understanding and practice of the dharma. In addition to the spiritual benefits these groups will offer, they also represent an important opportunity for us to further build community. Inherently, Affinity Groups are discussion-based, enabling sangha members to meet and interact in enriching settings.

Affinity Groups will be initiated, organized, and led by community members.
