Bhikkhu. Thich Thong Ly

Note: Because the epidemics are complicated in the United States, to ensure the health of Buddhists and friends in the community, especially the elderly or those with background diseases, that's the reason that I must show the Vu Lan ceremonies at Phuoc Binh Pagoda on facebook. Hope you can attend if you are afraid to come to the temple during this time. You can also send a list of Blessings to your parents and those who have died, so that we will help to pray. Sincerely grateful.
