Chapter Tozan (pilgrimage to Head Temple)

A group of twenty-two Myosenji Temple members recently returned from Japan where they made a pilgrimage to Taisekiji, Head Temple of Nichiren Shoshu.  They also visited Sado Island, one of the locations our Founder, Nichiren Daishonin, was exiled to after remonstrating with the military government in the 13th century. Here are some member photos from the trip.
