Dear Members and Friends;

Thank you for your in-door/remote attendance and support to Gyoki Service, which was held on January 23, 2022. Also, thank you for your continued support to our temple membership/building maintenance/Fujinkai donations for the year 2022. We pray with Nembutsu for the health and safety of our congregation.

We wish to invite you to out Spring Higan Service, which will be observed on Sunday, March 20, 2022. Higan is an important opportunity that comes twice a year to reflect upon ourselves and pay tribute to our forebears by engaging in religious services and visiting graves. Mizuko Kuyo (a memorial service for deceased children/grandchildren who unfortunately passed away at birth or in their childhood) will be combined. A memorial tablet will be offered to extend a special prayer. If you wish a prayer of this Mizuko Kuyo, please contact the temple by Friday, March 18, 2022.

If you plan to attend in-person, please E-mail us at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or call (213)346-9666 to let us know. To better prepare for the service, we would like to ask those who wish to attend in-person to cooperate by observing the following guidelines.

• an appropriate face-covering and social distancing.
• Using hand-sanitizers often (hand-sanitizers are provided at all areas of the temple).
• Not visiting the temple if you have a fever, cough, sore throat, and/or other symptoms of bad health.

We are looking forward to seeing you soon at Spring Higan Service. Namu Amida Butsu
