NBM SOS Centre Opening Ceremony Volunteering

*Registration ends at 11:59PM 18th January 2025.

Join us in a special opportunity to be part of something meaningful and tranquil at the Newburry Buddhist Monastery (NBM)! We're inviting volunteers to help prepare for the grand opening ceremony of the Sanctuary of Stillness Retreat Center, led by the renowned Ajahn Brahm. This peaceful and important event marks a new chapter for the monastery and will bring together like-minded individuals to support its opening in harmony.

Dates: January 25th to 27th, 2025
Location: Australia., 107 Beaches Ln, Newbury VIC 3458

This is a wonderful opportunity to contribute your time and energy to the spiritual community while enjoying a serene atmosphere filled with mindfulness. As a volunteer, you'll play a key role in setting up for the opening ceremony and ensuring everything is in place for this momentous occasion.

Voluntary work agenda:

Volunteers who stay overnight:
We warmly encourage volunteers to stay overnight to fully immerse themselves in the experience. You’ll have the chance to experience the peace and tranquillity of the monastery, share in moments of quiet reflection, and connect with others in the community. Food and accommodations will be provided at the monastery, but please bring your own clothing, personal hygiene items, and any belongings you may need for your stay.

Volunteers who are unable to stay overnight:
If you're unable to stay overnight, you're welcome to join us for the day.

Transportation:
Transportation will be arranged by the us. We will set up a carpooling from the City to NBM on the 25th and 26th as well as all the returning trip from the Monastery to the City (25th-27th). the More details will be announced a few days prior to the event through an email or Whatsapp group invitation.

If you're ready to lend a hand, share in the joy of building something meaningful, and deepen your connection with the practice of mindfulness, we’d love to have you with us.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity in helping us create a peaceful space for all who seek stillness.
