Special Obon Kyogi Toba Application

A Kyogi Toba will have the name of deceased family members and is offered during the Obon service. Tobas will be given back after the service to be taken home and placed on an Obutsudan or altar area. Do not worry if you do not have an Obutsudan, it is important to give thanks to the deceased and ancestors. 

Koygi Toba is to be brought back to the temple at Okuribi service on July 20th or later.

2025 Membership Request

Picture
The start of 2025 was difficult for many as we faced windstorms and wildfires here in Southern California. 

The current dues of $120/member and $80 for an Additional Adult Member in the same household has been in place for a few years. However, with rising costs of utilities and general maintenance and repair of our Temple, our Board of Directors voted to increase membership dues to $150/member and $100/Additional Adult Member in the same household for the membership period of April 1, 2025, through March 31, 2026. 

If you are able, please submit $150 for your membership and $100 for an Additional Adult Member of your household in the envelope for your convenience. Please also return the membership form with your donation (below). Please make your check payable to "Koyasan Beikoku Betsuin of Los Angeles" and write "2025 Membership" in the Memo line.
