Check the 2600 website for more details: https://atl2600.org . Video chat is at: https://rsvz.userserviceable.com/b/bri-kha-6kx Monthly meeting usually involves a CTF (if you want to participate), in which case bring a laptop, if you have Kali, BackBox, or security tools installed great! Named after the zine, 2600 meetings are a monthly gathering in a public location where we chat about recent events in security and privacy. Topics discussed vary wildly. There’s no cost, and no structure. There’s a few regulars and a few people finding us for the first time every month. When they are in person, our meetings are held on the Market level (lowest level) of the food court (http://www.gps-coordinates.net/latitude-longitude/33.844838/-84.361045/17/roadmap) in Lenox Mall, near the outside doors. When you enter in the outside doors on Market Level, look for the table in the middle or close to the glass with of laptops and cables. There is parking very close to the food court, directly opposite the mall from Peachtree. Lenox Square Mall 3393 Peachtree Rd NE Atlanta, GA 30326 All ages/skill levels welcome. No dues, feel free to bring new friends.

We now have both a male and female that have submitted their forms but are looking to share the cabin. If you know you plan to go, want to split the cost submit your form and you will be paired with a same gender person that is serious about going. There is no need to RSVP, if you are going, the only thing that truly reflects that is the submission of the form. Before anyone posts why don't I just pair the man and the woman together...I want to ensure everyone is comfortable.

**Welcome to [Freeside!](freesideatlanta.org)** Whether you're a seasoned musician with a thing for local scenes, or a fledgling ukulele player trying to get on a stage for the first time, you'll find a microphone waiting for you at the Music Meetup and Open Mic at Freeside Atlanta. Our open mic works a little different. To stretch those musical muscles, we start off the evening with a new activity each month at 7:30 and then proceed to a traditional open mic at 8:30. After the open mic, we open the stage up for a free jam that lasts until the last person leaves the room. **Schedule** * 7:00 PM - Doors * 7:30 PM to 8:30 PM - Activity and Sign-up * 8:30 to 10:30 - Open Mic Freeside is a member run space, completely dependent on the hard work and dedication of its members and volunteers. While the event is free, we have a suggested donation of 5-10 dollars in order to keep the event going and to improve the space for future events! All proceeds go into improving the space so more amazing people can rock this stage. **While we do not serve alcohol, the event is BYOB so feel free to bring your own drinks.**

🐸 Kambo: Atlanta GA, 11AM for a group gathering of Kambo & Rapeh. Complete both forms in each link to participate: Kambo Prep: https://forms.gle/aVSWGLJRT1s2DYsZ9 Participation Form: https://forms.gle/gskyi3SkZqeFvc1K7 After completion of the forms above, we will email / call you to continue your registration. lightofarjenis@gmail.com. ## Kambo Cleanse **What is Kambo?** Kambo is the waxy secretion of a tree frog living in the northwestern part of the Amazon rainforest. The scientific name for this frog is "Phyllomedusa bicolor" or "Giant Monkey Frog". It has traditionally been used by indigenous people to get rid of "panema" or bad luck, which allows life to become easier and flow more effortlessly. Kambo was used for amplifying hunting skills and to cleanse, strengthen and energize the minds and bodies of tribal hunters. Kambo enabled them to have increased speed and stamina, eat less and sleep less during the hunt. **Spiritual Aspects of Kambo**. Kambo is a spiritual practice. The frog helps to connect us with our innate wisdom and shows us what we can do in order to improve our situation in life. During Kambo treatments, we can receive insights, and changes that we need to make can be revealed. Kambo can enable us to end unhealthy habits and thought patterns and allow us to become more open to receive guidance from Spirit. ## Rapéh Ceremony Rapéh is a sacred traditional Amazonian snuff that connects us to the Spirit of the forest. It is made from sacred tobacco leaf, seeds, spices, bark, herbs, and is prepared with prayers and healing intentions. Rapéh is blown into the nose using a pipe or what's called a tepi. The self applicator is known as a kuripé. During a Kambo treatment, rapéh can be used to help in the release of blockages and purging. It can also be used for headaches, sinus problems and to ground and center and intensify concentration. Rapéh is also used in ayahuasca ceremonies. Rapéh is great for quieting the the mind and countering anxiety, manifestation, channelling and meditation. *We also have rapéh for purchase*

**For people who know there must be more to faith than what we were given.** CAYA Church (Come As You Are) is a new spiritual gathering in Atlanta exploring how the timeless teachings of Jesus can guide real life today—without the rigid structures, cultural baggage, or fear-based religion that many people have walked away from. This is a place for **spiritual thinkers, seekers, believers, and explorers** who still believe faith matters but want a deeper and more honest conversation about it. Led by **[Addam from Adam](https://www.keen.com/love-relationships/addam-melchizedek/12436612)**, CAYA is built around four powerful truths Jesus revealed about the human relationship with the Creator and life itself: **Creator Guardianship** Life has a source, and that source is good. The Creator is the origin of goodness, design, and guidance in human life. **Self Custodianship** We are entrusted with our choices, posture, and alignment. Spiritual growth requires responsibility for our own lives. **Creature Guardianship** Every human being is sacred. Their dignity, freedom, and self-determination deserve protection and respect. **Future Stewardship** How we live today shapes the future for ourselves and for those who come after us. These principles echo the deeper spirit of Jesus’ teachings about love, mercy, responsibility, and alignment with God. # What Makes CAYA Different **Spiritual but not rigid** We explore the wisdom of Jesus alongside insights from psychology, philosophy, and spiritual traditions that support truth, love, and human dignity. **Open to many spiritual perspectives** People from Christian, contemplative, mystical, and New Age backgrounds are welcome—as long as the spirit of the conversation supports growth, responsibility, and compassion. **Focused on real-life transformation** Faith is not just belief. It’s about how we live, choose, forgive, grow, and build meaningful lives. **Honest spiritual practice** Our gatherings include teaching, reflection, confession, prayer, and a shared ritual centered on the life and message of Jesus. **Community over performance** This is not about religious performance. It’s about people learning, growing, and supporting each other in living with deeper faith and alignment. **What Happens at a Gathering** Each gathering typically includes: • A thought-provoking talk or teaching • Guided reflection and spiritual realignment • A symbolic ritual centered on Jesus’ life and message • Conversation and fellowship with others on a spiritual journey **Who This Community Is For** You might resonate with CAYA if you: • Grew up religious but are searching for a deeper understanding • Still value Jesus’ teachings but want a broader spiritual conversation • Are “spiritual but not religious” and curious about faith again • Want a supportive community for spiritual growth • Believe spirituality should help people thrive on earth, not escape it **Gatherings: 1st & 3rd Sundays – 2026** Come curious. Come thoughtful. Come as you are. ***
