Online Monthly Remembrance Day Dharma Service for Sunday, March 27, 2022 with Rev. Dr. Bert Sumikawa at Windward Buddhist Temple. Rev. Sumikawa's Dharma Talk is titled, "No worries. Amida's got you covered." Remembrance Day is a time to honor family, friends, and even pets who passed away during the month of March, regardless of the year. This Jodo Shinshu Buddhist church service was recorded at Windward Buddhist Temple, a Shin Buddhist Temple in Kailua, Hawaii.
We have resumed in-person Sunday Dharma Services at the temple. You must be fully vaccinated and present your vaccination card and a picture ID prior to entering the temple.
