Thank You!
A heartfelt appreciation to all of our members and supporters at the Rinzai Zen Mission who helped organize another successful Obon festival! It’s a challenge for our small group of volunteers to put together such a huge event, not to mention the potential threat from not one, but two, hurricanes! But as in past years, we pulled through because of your dedication and perseverance. We would not be able to survive without all your hard work and are truly grateful for your support.
Thank you very much!
Until we meet again, we wish you good health!
In Gassho,
Alan Nago, President
and The Board of Directors, Rinzai Zen Mission
