Mid Essex Buddhist Centre Grand Opening

By Viryanatha on Tue, 10 Oct, 2023 - 10:17

The MEBC has been in existence since 2015 and we moved into our new premises in April 2023.

It was a real pleasure to see so many friends at our Grand Opening in Chelmsford on 24th September.

Āryasāra, our current chair invited Vanarājī, the previous Chair to cut the red ribbon and officially opened the Centre.

We are very grateful to Mahamati who dedicated the Centre to the three Jewels and treated us with a wonderful talk around Sangharakshita’s poem: the Four gifts.

The day ended joyfully...

Ordination in Essex

By parami on Mon, 7 Aug, 2023 - 15:37

Dear Friends,

On the 6th August around 80 sangha members, friends and family, attended the Public Ordination of Marion Pidgeon of the Mid-Essex Sangha. The ceremony took place in the lovely new Mid-Essex Buddhist Centre in Chelmsford, England.

Marion Pidgeon became Abhayavani (long 4th ‘a’ and long ‘i’. Dot under the ’n’), a Sanskrit name meaning “The Fearless Voiced One”.

Registered spelling Abhayavani.

Raising funds to buy our own Buddhist Centre

By Viryanatha on Tue, 10 Aug, 2021 - 09:56

After 5 years in rented buildings that we have now outgrown, we are planning a secure home for our community in our own property. We are almost in a position to go ahead with buying a Centre. We are still short of funds to secure a property.

We have a Just Giving Page to collect the remaining funds and we would be grateful if you could share this page as wide as you can. Thank you
