Visiting a Hidden Treasure in Beavercreek
On December 20, 2015 CRIS' Wellness Program and Senior Program partnered to bring a group of 20 Bhutanese Nepali participants to the Hindu Temple of Dayton in Beavercreek, Ohio. Community members, particularly seniors, are often requesting to visit temples in the area and were very excited for this opportunity. The group had the chance to pray and worship at the temple before listening to a woman from the area sing traditional songs.Participants enjoyed being able to visit and spend time in a traditional temple space, which is difficult for them to access in Columbus, and appreciated the opportunity to worship and connect with others at the temple.
