WAY 40th Anniversary Celebration
WAY (Wat Ananda Youth) celebrated its 40th anniversary
at a gala dinner on 18 Nov 2007. 500 members and friends came to
support WAY that evening. His Excellency, Mr Chalermpol Thanchitt,
The Thai Royal Ambassador was also there to grace the event.
The dinner starts-off with a short puja and a
blessing session led by the Abbot of Wat Ananda Metyarama Buddhist
Temple, Ven Chao Khun. It was followed by a series of performance
put up by the junior members. STOMP, our local dynamic performers,
put up a lively and exciting performance. There were also a traditional
Thai Dance, Guzheng, and a Violin and Keyboard duet performance.
It was also a night where we show our appreciation
to the senior members who had contributed tremendously to WAY for
the past decades. Venerable Chao Khun gave out tokens of appreciation
to these members in recognitions of their past efforts.
The finale was the cake cutting ceremony and members
sang Happy Birthday to WAY... deep in most of our hearts, we hope
that WAY would continue for more decades and play our little part
in the spread of the Dhamma. That's the WAY to go, LIVE THE DHAMMA!!
