Wat Buddha Oregon

Description

This is a fully functional and traditional Thai temple where many residential retreats are held through the year.  Most Americans know nothing of this temple and its warm hospitality.  The quiet practice hall is large and is nestled in a grove of trees.  Housing and food are provided.  The retreats are held on a donation basis only.

The local Thai/Lao communities use the temple well for ceremonial purposes and they also come on retreat many times a year.

There are three monks living at the temple and your local contact will be Ajahn Montri Chaiyo at 503-391-9866.  For further information, please call Ben Heffer at 970-456-3873. or bensue@sopris.net
