Fear not! The days of ghouls and church bazaars are not over yet. On Friday and Saturday you can celebrate the Day of the Dead at Condesa Restaurante in Arsenal Yards. Or if you are more in the mood for Armenian food, St. Stephen’s Church will be selling Kebab dinners among other treats on those same evenings. After dinner you might stroll over to the Mosesian Center to hear some classic radio dramas by H.G. Wells. If you’ve been contemplating meditating after the Halloween events, the library is holding a four-week introduction to Raja Yoga Meditation on Saturday afternoon. Then you can polish off the weekend at First Parish Church on Sunday. There you can do good at the same time as you treat yourself to a relaxing massage, where your $20 will benefit Doctors without Borders.
