Sunday, May 3, 2026 (First Sunday of the month)

The Buddha taught that those who do charity gain merit and wealth, and those who invite others to make merit gain many followers and influence.

We invite everyone with a May birthday to join as communal sponsors for our Birthday Forest Robe Offering. Bring your friends and family to make merit together! Please call (415) 753-0857 or email us watsanfran@yahoo.com to let us know your birthday so we can include your name in the ceremony each month.

On the same day, we’ll hold our Good Kamma Lunch Box Fundraiser to support the Temple and Wat San Fran School. Come fill your heart with good kamma — and your stomach with delicious Thai food and traditional desserts you won’t find anywhere else in San Francisco. Anumodana to everyone who has supported our past fundraisers!
