Sunday services are a cherished time for me, helping me connect with the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha. These gatherings are even more meaningful because my dad is deeply involved and always attends, making it a shared family experience. They also give me a wonderful chance to catch up with people I don’t often see, which really builds a sense of community. Plus, my involvement with the Jr. YBA (Young Buddhist Association) over the years, largely thanks to these services, has been incredibly enriching. It’s connected me with fellow Buddhists from across the state and even the country, and we get to share all kinds of experiences and stories.
