February 4 – Rev. Bert Sumikawa, Monthly Remembrance Service

During the first Sunday service of each month, we remember loved ones whose memorial date falls within the month. Please call the temple to register, or come a little early and register before the service. During the service, family members will be called to offer incense in memory of their loved ones. Respecting the memory of those who have gone before us is an important practice in Jodo Shinshu for it reminds of the truth of impermanence, enabling us to cherish each moment of this life as it comes, just as it is.

February 11 – Nirvana Day & Pet Memorial Service, Rev. Noriaki Fujimori of Palolo Higashi Hongwanji

Join us & celebrate Nirvana Day.

Nirvana Day is the day for remembering the death of Shakyamuni Buddha.

Our guest speaker will be Rev. Noriaki Fujimori of Palolo Higashi Hongwanji.

We will also have a Pet Memorial Service. Everyone is invited to bring pictures and names of pets to be memorialized. Please send the information (and photo if possible) to the office <mhm@moiliilihongwanji.org>. Mahalo!
