Rev. Barbara Brennan
Monthly Remembrance Dharma Service for Sunday, April 28, 2024 with a Dharma Talk by Rev. Barbara Brennan. The service was officiated by Rev. Brennan and Rev. Bert Sumikawa. Rev. Brennan shares thoughts on memorial services, going back to growing up in Arizona and visiting the area cemeteries to pay respects to family members.
Remembrance Day is a time to honor family, friends, and even pets who passed away during the month of April, regardless of the year. This Jodo Shinshu Buddhist church service was recorded at Windward Buddhist Temple, a Shin Buddhist Temple in Kailua, Hawaii.
