(Sorry, just found this as a draft from August! Later entries follow…)

"What is Zazen?" was the theme for Hokyoji's 2022 Jewel Mirror sesshin led by Reverends Daigaku Rummé, Reirin Alheidis Gumbel and Dokai Georgesen. This, in-person only, 7-day retreat began Saturday, August 13 at 4:00 pm and ended on Saturday, August 20 at noon.

We had 17 attendants, and everyone agreed at the end, it was the deepest and quietest retreat that they had experienced at Hokyoji. There were three participants from MZC, and we would like to return for the Rohatsu Sesshin in December, 12/3/22 - 12/10/22: https://www.hokyoji.org/event/hokyojis-rohatsu-sesshin/
