Resident Program Positions Available at Serenity Ridge

Deepen Your Practice and Be of Service

A limited number of resident program positions are now available at Serenity Ridge Retreat Center, founded by Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche and headquarters of Ligmincha International. Apply now if you are interested!

The resident program offers individuals a chance to deepen their practice while working 29 hours per week for Serenity Ridge Retreat Center. These positions are in the areas of housekeeping, maintenance, groundskeeping, program support and, on occasion, office support.

These positions offer a range of benefits, including:

• With the teacher’s approval, attendance at Serenity Ridge retreats that are open to the public, or Serenity Ridge programs for which the resident has met prerequisites and received permission from the teacher.
• A biweekly, 10-minute period of individual instruction in the further development of the resident’s practice by the Resident Lama, whenever his schedule permits.
• Use of the Garuda House Shrine room, unless this space is reserved for other purposes.
• Free meals during retreats and basic meal ingredients provided at other times for residents to prepare their own meals in our main kitchen.

If you are interested in a two- to six-month residency, please apply here.
