Interested in Helping?
We are always looking for people willing to be toban hosts. This involves bringing flowers for the altar and a small snack for after service. If you are interested in signing up for a Sunday (or two!), please contact Jackie.
Why Our Temple?
We believe the insights of the Dharma are accessible to all.
Our temple practices Jodo Shinshu Buddhism, a distinctly Japanese denomination of Buddhism, which teaches that the insights of the Dharma (teachings of truth) are accessible to everyone.
