This is long overdue, but here is this blog's WELCOME to our new minister and his wife, Rev. Hosho Shindo and Mrs. Mieko Shindo. It has been six weeks and it has been very exciting.
In some ways, we are treating it like a new era, and the temple has started on a few changes. For years, members of the Sangha has spoken about these changes, and very little had been made. But now, with a fresh face, we are able to tackled the challenges of making these changes and the Sangha should be able to see them.
We are updating our Bylaws and Rules and Regulations. The temple has so many different procedures that are mandated by various legislative acts that we will have to incorporate them into our R&R.
We are still taking suggestions, so we are asking our Sangha to leave them in our suggestion box in the back of the 'Gejin' (the congragation, or sangha, part of the Hondo, or main hall). Or they can be sent to info@gardenabuddhistchurch.org.
I'll be keeping up with the posts so check back here for more information.
Sincreely in Gassho...

What is Gardena Buddhist Church going to be like in the future? As time passes the new JLS teachers, new church members, and new office workers do not know how the JLS and Church operates. Because they are new, they may feel left out, ask the wrong questions, and do not know how to work with the existing employees. Let us welcome them like we welcome Rev. and Mrs. Shindo.
