Kathina Wish List 2020
At the request of our caring supporters, here is a list of suggested items that would be useful for Tisarana that could be offered during the Kathina season this year. If you plan to offer an item please cross it out using strikethrough (example) so that it can be removed from the list.

Kathina Celebrations 2020
As the Kathina season approaches, we’ve been considering how to organise the event this year. Though it would be great to celebrate together as we have done in the past, COVID 19 safety regulations have resulted in limiting capacity to 25 people in the tent per day.
As previously scheduled, the Kathina robe cloth will be offered by the sponsors and a limited group of supporters on October 4th, 2020.
The Sangha will gladly meet everyone else, limited to 25 people per day, starting October 5th till the end of the month. All others are welcome to choose a day of the month when Luang Por & Sangha members will be delighted to meet with you.
Simply register your visit by clicking here. We will contact you by phone to work out the details.
