Dear Sangha,
One of the most important things
I've gained from this past year as
the temple president is gratitude.
Our temple functions because we
have so many dedicated and generous volunteers.
Your commitment to our temple is greatly appreciated.
THANK YOU We are indebted to the 4 board
members whose 3 year term has expired. Please
take a moment to thank Angie Hughes, Craig Yanase,
Marilyn Achterman and Ray Fukunaga for their
dedication to our temple. Each of these individuals
have been valuable members of the Board and put a
great deal of time, energy and "sweat" into our temple.
In their place, we welcome the newly elected Board
members; Ken Garner, Kim Kono,
Shinya Ichikawa and Mie McGraw.
Their experience, skills and
creativity will be assets to the
Board. Thank you for your
involvement and willingness to
"lead" at our temple.
February 2016
These individuals have enabled us to provide
opportunities to learn and share the Buddha-Dharma.
Other than the service we canceled because of the
snow, OBT has not missed an opportunity to hold
services and activities for our Sangha. This is a
significant accomplishment considering we are without
a resident minister. With Rev. Fujimoto's cooperation,
we've been able to meet all the requests for private
services, memorials and funerals. The Board, BEC
and minister assistants have also sought his advise,
guidance and support on numerous occasions.
THANK YOU During the next few months, we are
looking forward to some exciting events. More than 35
people will be attending the NW Convention in Ontario.
In the Spring we have our Salmon - Sushi Dinner and
a special seminar with Rev. Kiyonobu Kuwahara from
the Jodo Shinshu Center. Thank you in advance for
your support and help at these future events.
Gassho,
Cathy

THANK YOU I spent time reviewing the minutes of
our Board meetings over the past year. It's satisfying
to know the Board has accomplished a great deal and
it helps my confidence for the year ahead of us. I can't
find a better word other than "proud." Much credit
goes to the Board, Dharma school teachers and our
members for stepping up to ensure that our temple
continues to function smoothly. However, I personally
am truly grateful and indebted to our Minister
Assistants (Alice Ando, Brenda Fugate, Jean
Matsumoto and Etsu Osaki) and Rev. Fujimoto.

TEMPLE BUILDING HISTORY cont’d:
THE STRUGGLE (1963-65)
OBWA News by Ann Shintani-Winner
(Japanese minutes translated by Kiyomi Dickinson)
11/12/63 – Emergency General Meeting: A report was
made to the general membership that $20,863.27 was
th
paid for the lot on 34 and Powell (located for the
Oregon Buddhist Church by a realtor friend of Herb
Osaki). An estimate for building of a new church
costing $83,040 was approved by the general
membership. Blue prints will take approximately 4
months to be made and building the structure will take
approximately 6 months.
The OBWA received a generous donation from the
Teramura family from Ontario, Oregon, in memory of
Haru Furukawa.
Note of interest included in minutes: a memorial
service for President John F. Kennedy was held on
11/25/63 with 82 members (Issei, Nisei and Sansei)
attending.
12/9/63 – A second drawing of the new building was
submitted with construction costs rising to $151,300.
2/11/64 – Reverend Nishimura and Mr. Muramatsu
and Mr. Nakamura went to Ontario to ask for
donations.
Between 3/31 and 9/2/64, after receiving
offers from 18 architects, Ralph C. Bonadurer, AIA
was selected to prepare the blueprints aided by
George Okamoto, AIA with Skidmore Owens & Merrill,
(a member of our temple). On 9/14/64, Mr. Okamoto
brought a model of the new building and asked for
comments and requests for any changes. Oregon
Bukkyo Fujinkai (OBWA) requested and received
detailed explanation of the kitchen.
1/10/65 – General Meeting: The financial report for
the new building was submitted as follows: Income
1963-1964: $68,956.61; Expenses: $22,573.17;
Balance: $46,383.17. Total amount pledged:
$89,998.00; Amount collected: $53,746.30.
2/26/65 – New Building Committee: Bonadurer was
paid $1,200 when blue prints were completed.
Okamoto spent 103 hrs working with Bonadurer who
paid him $5/hr. Okamoto accepted $3/hr and donated
$2/hr (for 103 hrs) to building fund.
Meetings of the New Building Committee were
held between 3/10/65 and 5/10/65 during which a
contract was signed with Onchi Construction
Committee. A letter was mailed informing the general
membership that a committee member would soon be
visiting asking for donations. By the June 14th
meeting, Mr. Tony Kato had received pre-approval for
a loan from Portland Federal Savings Bank in case
costs could not be met from donations. It was decided
to have the groundbreaking ceremony on 6/20/65 with
BCA Shocho (Bishop) Hanayama in attendance (see
picture in November 2015 issue).
Temple building history – more next month.
OBWA New Year Party: Saturday, February 6, from

Toban not only means “my turn” but “my chance” to show my
appreciation to all the men and women whose monetary
donations and hard work resulted in this beautiful place, our
Temple, to hear the Dharma.
Words of Jean Matsumoto - 1995
There’s no greater Dana than selfless giving. You can
use monthly Temple clean up as a meditation itself. You
don’t have to be on this month’s Toban list to help make
the Temple an inviting place. If you’d like to be placed on
a the list, please contact Jean at:
jamatsumoto@gmail.com.

Board Summary by Susan Endecott
Board of Directors Meeting, Friday, January 8, 2016
th
Following is a summary of the January 8 meeting.
For OBT members wishing to review the full minutes of
the meeting, copies are kept in a notebook in the OBT
Library.
• The meeting was called to order at 7:10 pm
with gassho.
• New Board members for 2016 were
introduced.
• Elaine Yuzuriha presented the temple financial
reports for yearend 2015: Balance Sheet as
of Dec. 31, 2015; Profit & Loss Statement
which showed a positive net income for 2015.
She also presented the proposed budget for
2016.
• President, Cathy Yarne, asked Board
members to sign up to chair major services
and to chair (or find other temple members to
chair) the temple fundraising events for 2016.
• Portland Taiko (PT) Executive Director, Wynn
Kiyama, proposed a change in the designated
storage areas to be set aside for PT use. He
requested use of the alcove in the room in the
northwest corner of the basement, which
would mainly require moving of the children’s
books. PT would then be able to give back
some of the space behind the sliding doors on
the south side of the basement which had
been cleared for their use. This request was
approved by the Board.
• Marilyn Achterman reported on OBT’s
December mochitsuki event. About 900 lbs of
rice were made into mochi, and nearly all was
sold.
• There was discussion of possible changes that
could be made to the temple lobby area to
make it more welcoming. Rev. Fujimoto has
made some suggestions.
• Wynn Kiyama requested use of the temple
basement from 5:00 to 9:00 AM on Monday,
Jan. 25 to film a Fox news segment promoting
the Jan. 31 Community Mochitsuki event.
This request was approved by the Board.
• Election of officers for 2016: Cathy Yarne,
President; Ken Garner, Vice-President; Kim
Kono and Susan Endecott, Co-Secretaries
• Discussion of changing the day/time of Board
meetings from Friday evenings. For the
coming months, meetings will be held on
Sunday afternoons at 12:30, dates to be
determined.
•
Meeting adjourned at 10:00 pm.

Happy New Year 2016. I hope this will be a happy
and fulfilling New Year. I also hope that part of this wish
or a guide to this fulfillment is the Oregon Buddhist
Temple. You can support the Temple in many ways by
participating in events such as Sunday services and
also attending the special events such as the Hoonko
Seminar by Rev. Kobata from San Francisco Buddhist
Temple, which will be on Saturday, January 23, and the
Hoonko Service on Sunday, January 24. Hopefully you
can even enjoy the interaction with our Sangha
members. Part of the success of these and many more
activities to hear the Dharma come from your telling us
you support OBT. Your membership is one way to show
this support. Enclosed in this newsletter is the
membership form to fill out to be part of the Sangha. An
additional donation to help OBT continue as a gathering
place to hear the Dharma will be appreciated.
In Gassho,
