Finland - Thanksgiving at Lammi

We happily invite you to celebrate Thanksgiving on Saturday November 25th at Lammi Zen Center!


Thanksgiving is the one holiday Karen brought to our Sangha from America. It is all about sitting down together around a big table and spending time with family and friends. We will have the sauna warmed up, a movie in the Zendo and sitting in the mornings. You can also bring instruments with you if you wish to play a song for others, or anything else that you would like to share with others.

We’ll sit down together for the Thanksgiving meal at 2 pm. It is a potluck, so please bring a dish for about 6 to 8 people. You can also arrive earlier and make food at the center’s kitchen, if you wish. If you don't cook or have time to cook, store bought soft drinks, juice and snacks of any kind are always appreciated by all.

You are very welcome to bring your partner, children, parents and friends! And as always, you can stay Friday and / or Saturday nights, so that we can have a full weekend of good times together!

If you're planning on coming, you’re welcome to drop Saara a line with the information about what you will be bringing. That way we can keep track on how much main dishes, salads, deserts and snacks we will be having for our meal. The closer we get to the feast the better we will know what we are still missing, so Saara and I can also give tips on what to bring if you haven’t yet decided. Or you can always just show up with a surprise dish! 😊

Hope to see you at Thanksgiving! <3

Lots of love,

Saara
