Writer's picture: Oregon Buddhist TempleOregon Buddhist Temple


This coming Sunday, July 5th, we will have a joint service by NW District Ministers. Please check out and subscribe to their YouTube Page so you won't miss the joint services offered by the Northwest district ministers!


This joint service is for Rev. Dr. Takashi Miyaji of Tacoma Buddhist Temple, who will be transferred to Southern Alameda County Buddhist Church as of August 1, 2020. He will also be teaching at Institute of Buddhist Studies in Berkeley, CA. It is sad to lose him from the northwest district, but this transfer will be great benefit for the future Jodo Shinshu sanghas in the US. We all wish him the success in Bay area and looking forward to invite him to our district again in the future.
