SOTO ZEN NORTH AMERICA VIDEOS
Soto Zen Shumucho (administrative offices) made videos to show our activities in North America. The first one will show you the current stream of Soto Zen in North America, how the Zen is synchronizing in the daily life of the people who live there.
In the second one, almost 100 year-history in North America can be seen including Zenshuji. Soto Zen Buddhism was originally begun for Japanese immigrants. But now, there are so many Zen centers for the practitioners in North America.

MOTHER’S DAY & FATHER’S DAY LUNCHEON - MAY 20
The Board of Directors cordially invite the Mothers and Fathers to attend the Annual Mother’s Day & Father’s Day Potluck Luncheon. It will be held on Sunday May 20th after the Monthly and Memorial Service which begins at 11:00 am. It is a wonderful way for us to honor our parent(s) and let them have a relaxing day. It is also an opportunity for us to socialize with other temple members.
The young adults are requested to bring a side dish. Please contact the temple with any questions. We look forward to seeing everyone there.
