President's Message

Each year as we put on the annual festivals it truly amazes me the continued dedication and hard-working efforts of our members, friends and supporters.
Countless hours of preparation, organizing, setting up, cooking, creating crafts, making phone calls, sending emails, coming up with new ideas, trying to make improvements, generous donations and cleaning up. There are many aspects into putting on such an event. Thanks to your part we are able to put on a successful event year after year. With everyone working together and doing their part we are able to sustain the Temple. This I am truly grateful for. On behalf of VBT I would like to especially thank Ricky and Mike for taking on the responsibility as the Hanamatsuri Bazaar Chairs. Mike will also be the Obon Festival Chair along with Ford. It is our hope that we can count on your support again in July.

During the month of May at Temple we honor our dear Mothers, observe Shinran Shonin's birthday, recognize our youngest Dharma friends with the Hatsumairi - Infant Presentation and join the nation in observing Memorial Day as Rev. Rosenthal conducts services at Eternal Hills Memorial Park and San Marcos Cemetery. I look forward to seeing you at Temple!

Gassho,

Terri
