Five Mindfulness Training Transmission Ceremony

On Saturday, January 3, 2026, a Transmission Ceremony for the Five Mindfulness Trainings will be held in the Sanctuary of the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Fairfax from 8:30 AM to 12:00 PM EST. This ceremony is for those who have completed the Five Mindfulness Trainings Class and wish to receive the Trainings, as well as for anyone who has previously received the transmission and would like to renew their commitment and practice.
