Flyer for Autumn Ohigan Services on September 21, 2025. Family Service is at 9:30 am, and regular Service is at 10:15 am. The flyer features an image of higanbana, red spider lily, which blooms in the fall in Japan and is associated with autumn Ohigan. The text reads: Ohigan, "The Other Shore," is held twice twice a year around the spring and fall equinox, when the daylight and nighttime are equal and the weather is mild. It is a time of balance. During Ohigan, we receive the teachings and reflect upon crossing from this shore of ignorance, anger and greed to the other shore of enlightenment."
