Yet Another Action-packed Temple Day!

Saturday is always the youth group’s “Temple Day”, it is the day where the members all gather at the Fo Guang Shan South Island Temple for a day of learning, enjoyment and forging closer relationships.

Under the guidance of YAD1 President, Jason Liu, the group of ten youth members rehearsed their hand gestures and practiced their break dancing on the 5th September, along with three new additions to the group in which their energy created a new atmosphere in the slowly warming Christchurch spring.

At the conclusion of the evening meal, everyone spent their time assisting with the clean up chores. At the same time, they were absorbed in their everlasting conversations. Later that evening, following the suggestion of YAD2 Vice-president Hao-Wen Lin, Jason brought the youths to central city to listen to Vince Harder, a New Zealand singer perform as well as to watch the ‘Swarm’ dance performance.

The atmosphere was further stirred up to breaking point as Vince Harder pumped more excitement into the vast crowd of participants giving the youth group members a night to remember and a reason to look forward to Temple Day the following week.
