Saturday becomes YAD’s “Temple Day”!
On 21st February, under the guidance of Venerable Juexi and BLIA Young Adults Division President Weichia Cheng, 20 BLIA South Island Young Adults Division One and Two members had their committee meeting.
During the meeting, a resolution was made; that is to set every Saturday as “YAD Temple Day”. Venerable Juexi encouraged all the YAD members to come to the Temple on “Temple Day” to join in the Dharma Service, as well as participate in the Dharma instrument class and Dharma class. Apart from Buddhism studies, Venerable Juexi also hoped that during the day, the youths can also learn the methods and skills required for writing news, updating the website and editing pictures.
From the first Saturday of March onwards, the Temple will employ a local English teacher to help the youths in improving their English writing skills. The YAD also expressed their willingness to take up the responsibility of preparing dinner on Saturday nights, and thus spend a fruitful, well-structured and contented weekend at the Temple.
