The NW District of Buddhist Churches of America (BCA) is going to hold its annual Convention in conjunction with the BCA National Council Meeting at the Hyatt Regency in Renton, Washington February 19 – 23, 2020.

Our Gomonshu also mentioned this slogan in his New Year greeting message. (Please see the January Wheel of Dharma.)
