Autumn Ohigan & Peace Day Dharma Service for Sunday, September 17, 2023 with a Dharma Talk by Bishop Toshiyuki Umitani at Windward Buddhist Temple. The service was officiated by Rev. Bert Sumikawa at Windward Buddhist Temple in Kailua, Hawaii.
This summer, Reverend Toshiyuki Umitani became the 17th Bishop of the Honpa Hongwanji Mission of Hawaii. WBT (Kailua Hongwanji) was Bishop & Mrs. Umitani’s first assignment as a resident minister (in charge of our temple). We are excited to have Bishop Umitani as our guest speaker for the Autum (Fall) Ohigan & Peace Day service.
