\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Highlights of this year\u2019s annual gathering at the Holy Heavenly Lake Buddhist Town included the introduction and sharing by development committee members and KAC youth. Cherry Lai from Hong Kong and Dong Dong Wu from Taiwan and Thailand reported on their March 28 Myanmar earthquake relief efforts. Every act of compassion and contribution became an inspiration and example for us all.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Our dedicated volunteers generously offered their time, energy, and enthusiasm, ensuring the event\u2019s smooth success, and allowing everyone to share in this warm and joyous celebration.<\/p>

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 First and foremost, we extend our deepest gratitude to the Baiyun Team of ten volunteers, who arrived a full week before the event to help prepare and beautify the grounds. In addition, several volunteers led by Brother Xiao, despite having just attended the Los Angeles Dharma Assembly, came immediately to Holy Heavenly Lake to join in preparations. Sister Xu generously provided her vehicle to transport supplies, once again making her an indispensable cornerstone of the event. We are equally grateful to our Canadian volunteers, who once again demonstrated flawless teamwork and unwavering commitment!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
