There was plenty of sunshine in Seal Beach again. The main reminder of the storm was the 20-foot high wall of sand that was bulldozed into position along the beach to protect the nearby homes.
In the afternoon I attended a service at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in downtown Los Angeles with three Buddhist monks from Hsi Lai Temple. The mass was an annual “respect for life liturgy” and 148 candles were lit and placed around the altar. Each one represented a “life lost to abortion today in the County of Los Angeles.”
I attended the service to show support for increased dialogue between my Buddhist friends and the Roman Catholic and other Christian communities.
