The Patrons of St. Columban Foundation presents a fundraising concert with the St. Joseph’s Catholic Secondary School Choir under the direction of Gilles Levac and the Celtic group Emberwynd at St. Columban's Church on Sunday October 26 at 2 p.m.  Admission is freewill donation.  All are welcome. 

At times, we all experience things in life that feel unfair or simply too much for one single human being to handle. In the back of our mind, we know that accepting rather than rejecting is key, but how exactly should we approach the situation?  What does it truly mean to patiently accept someone or something? During this retreat, we will look at the wisdom of patience together with Buddha’s teachings on karma to help us develop a different, more empowered attitude towards our difficulties that we cannot change. Everyone is welcome! With Buddhist nun and Resident Teacher Gen Chöyang.
