Happy Autumn!
Our October Newsletter is up on the website, on our Newsletter page!
The October Newsletter shares with you how Oregon Buddhist Temple is staying connected during the social distancing times: a Dharma Message from Rev.Sugahara, messages from various OBT members and groups (Study Class, OBWA, Dharma School, and more!), a very nice article by the recent Dharma School graduate Akane (Congratulations, we are thrilled to see what adventures you will have!), very interesting articles by various BCA ministers, a glimpse to history of Fujinkai, and so on. Please go to our Newsletter Page , and check it out, and share it with your friends and family!
The OBT board is constantly reviewing the possibility and ways to reopen the physical temple -- as well as the various ways to stay connected safely. We miss going to the temple physically. But for now, let us stay connected as safe as possible. Please visit our Sunday Services and Morning Services via YouTube at :
Morning Services are about 15 minutes long, where Rev.Sugahara leads a chant and shares a verse from Jodo Wasan -- Hymns of the Pure Land. It goes live at 8am PST, but you can watch it any time after that if you have other things going on at that time.
Here is the most current Morning Service, in case you missed it!
Please stay safe, and connected!
