Dear Peacemakers,
Because of you, Zen Peacemakers creates spaces where people can confront suffering, open their hearts, and cultivate compassion. Every circle, program, and retreat we offer is rooted in the Three Tenets: Not-Knowing, Bearing Witness, and Taking Action, principles that guide us to meet the world with presence, courage, and care, inspired by the vision of Bernie Glassman.
This year, more people than ever have joined us. Through online trainings connecting participants across continents and in-person retreats where barriers dissolve and healing begins, we’ve brought together hundreds of people in shared reflection and action. Since October 2023, ten programs focused on the suffering in Gaza have created spaces for solidarity, acknowledgment of grief, and the nurturing of compassion.
Bernie’s life and teaching remind us that compassion is not only a feeling but a call to action, and that true change begins when we engage fully with the suffering of the world.
Your generosity allows us to expand our offerings, ensuring that our mission reaches more people, deepens our programs, and provides new opportunities for learning, connection, and embodied peace. Every gathering, every voice lifted, is only possible because of you. Your support keeps our programs free and accessible, sustaining a global network of Peacemakers and helping participants put the Three Tenets into practice in their communities and beyond.
We invite you to continue this work with us. Whether through a monthly gift or a one-time contribution, your support strengthens our programs, expands our reach, and keeps the vision of Bernie Glassman alive in action.
With gratitude,
Geoff O’Keeffe and the Zen Peacemakers Team
