Sang (a special morning purification fire ceremony) is an offering to all worldly gods and the 4 guests: Buddhas & Bodhisattvas; Protectors; sentient beings; and those with whom we have karmic debts. This practice pacifies war, encourages peace and averts sickness.

This in-person event is also being offered on Zoom. If you would like to participate remotely, please click here.

For those who wish to sponsor the chanting, donations can be made toward meals, fire offering ceremonies, or the tea served during the chanting. General contributions toward these special practices are also welcome. Be sure to include a prayer with your donation which will be read aloud to the assembly.

You may make your donations on-line or simply mail your tax-deductible contribution to:

We urge all program participants to take precautions against the ongoing risk of COVID through wearing masks and washing hands.
