A Benefit and Celebration for Shahara Godfrey

July 16, 2016 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

with musical performances by Melanie DeMore and Eve Decker

Come join us to welcome Shahara Godfrey, beloved dharma teacher back to EBMC! Listen to the wonderful music of Melanie DeMore and Eve Decker and gather with our beautiful spiritual community to support Shahara’s continued recovery.

Our beloved teacher and friend, Shahara Godfrey, has courageously faced many serious health challenges these last several months including multiple surgeries, high levels of pain and being in the Unknown. We celebrate that she is now out of the hospital and beginning to walk tenderly on her path of recovery. Shahara is deeply grateful for all the support that has been offered and for the prayers and metta sent to her during this vulnerable and challenging journey.

Funds raised through this benefit will help support Shahara during this new phase for her long-term recovery. Shahara is unable to work for a much longer time then she had originally expected. All are welcome to come celebrate Shahara’s return to EBMC and her life. Any amount of a donation is appreciated, small or large.

Register here for this event and you are welcome to make your donation now!
