    Steward Needed at Arrow River Monastery near Thunder Bay

    Ajahn Punnadhammo, abbot of Arrow River Monastery near Thunder Bay, is in need of a new steward.

    From Ajahn Punnadhammo:

    On April 28 we are going to ordain a young man, James Koskela, as a samenera. While this is a joyous occasion, it does raise a practical issue. James has been serving long term as our steward (driver and cook) and after taking the samenera vows he won’t be able to fulfill those duties (especially shopping).This leaves us in need of a steward. We did have someone lined up for the position, but it didn’t work out. So we are suddenly short handed.

    If you know anyone who might be interested, or can spread the word, please point them in this direction. More information about Arrow River and stewardship can be found here – https://arrowriver.ca/visit/visitPage.html. The person acting as steward should have a valid driver’s license and be willing to make at least a two month commitment, preferably longer.
