Resignation of Dharmolka

From Order Connection on Tue, 21 Mar, 2017 - 17:40

Dear Friends, 

Dharmolka, Eve Williams, has written to me as her Public Preceptor to resign from the Order. She was ordained in 2002 at Il Convento and Anjali was her private preceptor. As Anjali died in 2015, I consulted with other Public Preceptors in my Kula and we have accepted Eve’s resignation. I have replied to Eve wishing her well. Her resignation letter can be read below.

With metta,
Dhammadinna

Dear Dhammadinna,
