Wagessa Ceremony


During our Sunday program on July 2nd, Evan Wong, Walker Diebolt and Matthew Heyward-McDonald all recieved the Five precepts from Chozen and Hogen Bays. They will now wear a Wagessa, a hand-sewn garment worn during meditation and services, to remind themselves of their commitment to live an ethical life.
