READ THE KORAN IN FOUR WEEKS
First Lutheran Church of West Seattle
206-935-6530
www.flcws.orgHave you wanted to know for yourself what the Koran says in a world where Islam is mentioned nearly every day in the news? Then make plans now to join this four-week guided reading led by Pastor Ron Marshall — who’s been teaching this class four times a year since 2003. The $50 registration fee includes an authorized translation of the Koran for your keeping. Worksheets and other background handouts from Islamic scholars will be provided for each class session the week before. Call now to register or make inquiries.
Bring your curiosity, your questions, and a friend to our free “Intro to Zen” class.
Whether you’re a long-time Buddhist practitioner or a Buddhist skeptic, whether you meditate frequently or you’ve never meditated before, whether you’re wearing a black Buddhist robe or a ski jacket, your presence and your questions are welcome here.
Abbot Koshin Chris Cain and Elizabeth Fitterer will lead the two-part program:
Part 1: Why Zen?
- Introductions. Any questions about Zen?
- What we love about Zen and how we got into it.
- What’s the goal of practice at this Zen Center?
Break: tea and cookies
Part 2: Our Zen Center
- Meditation instructions: chairs, cushions, and benches.
- Brief explanations of Zen ritual: tea, chanting, the role of the jiki and shoji, bowing.
- A very brief version of a Zen service-tea, jiki offers incense, one chant, bowing, sitting for 5 minutes, walking meditation.

At Tinkergarten, families meet outdoors to connect and learn through play. In this free trial class, Tinkergarten Leader, Alison Arnote, will facilitate an expert-designed play scenario, allowing children of various ages and needs to explore, problem solve, communicate, collaborate, and create together. Parents and caregivers learn, too, as we share insight into your child’s development.
This trial class is:
- Designed for children ages 18 months-8 years. Child/children are accompanied by an adult. Siblings of any other age are most welcome.
- Limited to the first 15 families who register.
Kids may get a bit messy (Hurrah!), so please send them in clothing that can get dirty.
We start the class at the specified location but may end within a reasonable walk from that location.
This trial class is free.
