Important Notice
Beginning January 4, 2015 we will be meeting on Sundays at a new location.
St. Andrew’s Centre which is located at
#1 – 10601 Southport Rd SW
(Near Macleod Trail SW and between Southland Drive and Anderson Rd)
We will also re-begin meditation from 9:30 – 10 AM before Services
For those of you who might not know, Bob Gubenco who has completed his Jodo Shinshu Online Correspondence course and initial Minister Assistant Training at the Jodo Shinshu Center in Berkeley California, will be travelling during November to the main Temple of our Tradition, the Hongwanji-Ha, in Kyoto Japan to undertake his Tokudo Minister’s Ordination.
This Ordination is always done at the Main Temple by the Head Priest of our Order, the Go Monshu Sama.
Bob has been a solid supporter of our Temple for several years and traveled with James Martin Sensei and a few other members to Hongwanji-Ha Temple in Kyoto in 2009.
(FYI: Bob will also be an Assistant Minister and known as ‘Sensei’).
On his return, he will assume some Temple duties as our Head Sensei James Martin works with him.
I know we all wish Bob a great experience and support him in this important commitment to our Temple and to his own Buddhist journey!!
Hello!
I hope your summer was full of happiness and joy!
We will be holding Wednesday evening Services at 7:30PM in the Lantern Room of the Bridgeland Community Centre for the 6 weeks beginning Sept 3rd and carrying into October.
As all finances are being directed towards the Temple Reno, I will ask you for a voluntary donation to cover the cost of the Wednesday evening Services.
(no one will check who was able to donate or not, but we need to cover the costs. Thank you for understanding.)
