My first New Year's Gosho.

Well, today was my first New Year's Gosho and it was really fun! We did Gongyo, Maiyumi and Kati read the New Year's Gosho, Ebony read tow poems while Katie share her experience practice. Tobey, Sharon, Neil, Claude and I ream a poem while singing 'Higher Than The Sky.' Claude, Katie, Alex, Ebony, Sharon and Erika did a dance to 'Smooth Sailing' I believe the song was. Jennifer gave encouragement, we had gohonzon conferrals and leadership appointments. We saw a DVD of Ikeda-Sensei visited China and reuniting with a friend (I forgot his name. :P) We did a group picture to give to Ikeda-Sensei and we had a potluck. It was a great time and a great success. :D Also today, I bought "For Today & Tomorrow Daily Encouragement" and "The Buddha in the Mirror" by Ikeda-Sensei and some candles. Also, Marie from the store got me a Daimoku Chant, yay! :D Also, Haruko-San gave everyone Potato Soup to take home. :D
