From all appearances as I peer out at the snow beautifully floating downward to earth, and then gaze at the forecast on my computer screen, there seems to be no sense in waiting longer: yoga class for Wednesday evening 1/15 is cancelled and will be rescheduled, in addition to the class from this morning. Will keep students posted! Meanwhile, hoping to resume NEXT week, and that those who are reading this can find pleasure in the beauty of winter weather!
The Sanskrit Immersion with Claudette Evans of the American Sanskrit Institute is officially open for registration! Please send tuition in the form of a check made out to Elizabeth Kerwin, in the amount of $225, as well as your name and contact information to me at 6551 Rutsatz Road, Deming WA 98244 . Cancellation Policy: Full refund if cancellation happens by 1/10/20. After that time, 50% until one week prior to the weekend, at which time the full amount is forfeited unless there is a true emergency. Many thanks for your understanding, with a weekend retreat taught by a teacher from Tacoma. Those wishing to be in retreat with overnight accommodations, friday and saturday nights, please be in touch with me via email at elizabethkerwin@hotmail.com regarding lodging at the Forest Hermitage or River Retreat both in walking distance from Turtle Haven, site of the teachings.
Hoping you all have had wonderful holidays thus far!
I am happy to report that the Winter fundraiser for those in need of shelter and home in our county was a success. Together we raised nearly $800, and I was able to contribute props for the classes I will teach at Agape House, as well as cash donations to the YWCA and Homesnow. Many thanks for all who contributed! Susan Roland sold many Maher items at Assumption Church and after our yoga classes, and raised funds now passed along to Sister Lucy and Maher. Thanks to Susan, and to all who made purchases for such a wonderful cause!
I look forward to resuming classes at Turtle Haven next week, on Tuesday January 7th, and Wednesday, January 8th. Please do register in advance following the instuctions on the flyer. Happy New Year! 
There is still room in the benefit classes I am offering at Turtle Haven. Please consider joining in, both to benefit yourself, and to make an offering to our community’s members with challenges around shelter, and home. Here is the flyer for Winter Session with the benefit class information on the flyer as well, listed as Intersession Classes! ALL tuition proceeds to be donated.
Susan Roland will be at Assumption Church on 12/1/19 selling goods made by people from Maher as a benefit for this wonderful community. Here is a link to the Maher website, if you have not been to our local Maher events with Sister Lucy, and would like to learn more– or to see what has more recently been happening in the community! https://maherashram.org
There will also be additional opportunities to make purchases which contribute towards helping others at this same sale! See the simple description Susan shared with me below:

The last classes for Fall quarter were originally scheduled for Thanksgiving week.

Stay tuned for Intersession fundraising classes, with proceeds to be donated to organizations assisting those currently living without a home.
