On the evening of January 11, 2007, members of the Manitoba Buddhist Temple washed rice and prepared pork chow mein at the Temple. Roughly 250 servings of chow mein and rice were prepared and transported to All Saints Church for storage until next morning.
Members included: Robert Miyai, Ted Nakano, Joe & Miyoko Okano, Randy Takeuchi, Tamiko Yamashita, Max Utsunomiya, Marc Courtney, and Jim Hisanaga.
The Manitoba Buddhist Temple participated with Agape Table Inc. on the morning of January 12, 2007 and served the New Year meal to approximately 150 people at All Saints’ Church. Normally, there are 250 regulars for the soup kitchen meals. A hot serving of pork chow mein and rice were served.
It appears that crowd enjoyed the oriental meal since many came back for seconds and there were no leftovers.
Members from the Manitoba Buddhist Temple who participated at the New Year meal included: Mas and Naomi Miyai, Tanis Moore, Ted Nakano, Miyoko Okano, Tamiko Yamashita, Max Utsunomiya, Marc Courtney, and Jim Hisanaga.
The Manitoba Buddhist Temple would like to thank all the individuals who assisted with this worthy project. We would like to continue with another meal in the future and hopefully count on you for assistance.
