Upcoming Events & News
Temporary Relocation of the Resident Monks: The work is scheduled to commence on September 1, 2026. During the construction period, our resident monks—Ven. Jinananda Thero, Ven. Suneetha Thero, Ven. Sumanarathana Thero, and Ven. Sumanasiri Thero—will be temporarily relocated to 1873 Fairbank Avenue, Ottawa, between August 25 and August 31, 2026. The temporary residence is a single-storey bungalow located in a residential area, with limited space for conducting religious activities. On September 1, 2026, the existing temple building will be handed over to the construction company.
Regular Dhamma Activities: We have made arrangements with the Masonic Centre at 2140 Walkley Road, Ottawa, to conduct most of our regular Dhamma activities during the construction period. These activities will include: Monthly Poya Sil Programme, Sunday Dhamma School for children, January 1st Blessing Programme, Sinhala and Tamil New Year Blessing Programme, Wesak Celebrations, Katina Celebrations.
