Vegetarian Cooking Classes: Achievement Night Wednesday 26 August 2009

To celebrate the end of the Cooking Class programme and to encourage participants to put into practice what they had learnt over the previous four Saturdays each class member was given a dish to make which they all brought to the Temple to share with Venerable Miaoyu and Venerable Rulian; and our teacher Karen Ji. Members of Lotus Link Dharma class were also invited to celebrate the end of the cooking class.

Karen acknowledged the excellent cooking, offered some constructive suggestions and was impressed with the overall effort of the group. Venerable Miaoyu on behalf of the Temple presented a memento to Karen Ji to show appreciation for her willingness to share her skills and experience in cooking. Everyone enjoyed a very delicious meal.

Overall, a demonstration of unity and team work between the sub chapters of BLIA - North Island and that language is not a boundary to learning from one another.
