On Thursday, November 27 (6:30pm) the Toronto Buddhist Church (1011 Sheppard Avenue W) will hold another soup-packing event. This is to create ready-mix soup bowls with rice, lentils and seasonings for the less fortunate. Like an assembly line, they add individual ingredients to create a nourishing, hearty soup. It's a fun filled group activity serving a great need! They provide all ingredients, so just come to help pack.

Last Saturday Buddhist Church of San Francisco members participated in the 4th annual Progress Pride Flag Raising Ceremony in Japantown. The event was originally initiated by local young Jodo Shinshu Buddhists who wanted to embed LGBTQ+ inclusion deeper into the Japanese American community.
