Dennis Tashiro
Dharma Service for Sunday, July 19, 2026 with a Dharma Talk by temple president, Dennis Tashiro. This Jodo Shinshu Buddhist service was officiated by Raymond Takiue of Mo'ili'ili Hongwanji. Dennis shares the story "The Humble Pie" by Jory John and connects the themes of interdependence and interconnectedness with last weekend's Bon Dance.
Next week's Remembrance Service will be the last service before we go on our traditional summer break in August. Sunday Dharma Services will resume in September.
