2016 Alms & Sangha’s Offering

According to the Sutra of Generosity, one grows in beauty, strength, longevity, happiness and eloquence by making offerings to the Triple Gem. In the past, Venerable Maudgalyayana and Emperor Liang had also offered food to the Sangha to liberate their deceased loved ones from the lower realms.

Offering alms to the Sangha is a meritorious act as it allows the monastics to concentrate on their learning, practising and sharing of the Buddha’s teachings. You can choose from various offering packages or make monetary donations at our Front Office. All donations will be utilised for the building and funding of the Buddhist College of Singapore.

Date: 1st January 2016, Friday. Time: 8.00 am – 10.00 am. Venue: The Hall Of Great Compassion. Enquiries: 6849 5300.
