The Buddhist Church of Florin celebrated its 90th anniversary on Oct. 25 with the theme “Remembering the Past and Embracing the Future.”
Over 200 people attended the event. Through old photographs, maps and newspaper clippings, attendees reflected on the people and efforts that made the temple what it is today.
A special Sunday service was held to commemorate the anniversary. Officiating the service was Socho Koshin Ogui, Bishop of the Buddhist Churches of America, assisted by Rinban Bob Oshita and Sensei Grace Hatano of the Sacramento Buddhist Church.
