Portland Buddhist Priory Prior
From Rev. Master Haryo: “After 18 years as Prior of the Portland Buddhist Priory, Rev. Master Meiko Jones has returned to Shasta Abbey as a permanent member of the community. On November 10 she offered the temple bowing seat to Rev. Leon Kackman, and he is now the new Prior. I am deeply grateful to Rev. Master Meiko for all that she has done over the years, the real nature of which is perhaps only known by those who have served as long and faithfully as she has. I am also very grateful to Rev. Leon, who has been willing to follow Rev. Master Meiko in the line of priors which stretches back some 40 years. My best wishes to him and the congregation as they get to know one another.”
