Future Plans |
Thanks to the benedictions and blessings from Grandmaster, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, True Buddha Shi Cheng Association has flourished over the years. The current building has exceeded its capacity to accommodate the increasing number of dharma brothers and sisters coming to participate in our activities. Plans are on the way to build a bigger and grander building in order to continue its task of delivering more sentient beings and let the lineage of True Buddha School benefit more people. This undertaking is a sacred task, we welcome people from all walks of life to contribute in anyway they can and build a better future together. |
