This year is Shao Shan Temple's 21st anniversary since the Opening Ceremony on Sept 13, 2000. Due to the funeral ceremonies last weekend, we had only a small commemoration of the occasion this year. The theme of the Anniversary ceremony is re-dedication - re-dedication of the Temple and re-dedication of ourselves to our highest intention which we symbolize together with tying a ribbon on the gold pole in front of the Temple. Children from the family program joined in amidst colorful flags under a brilliant blue sky.
