- Hi! Its wonderful to know there's a fellow Catholic/Pure Land Buddhist here in Kelowna. I had known about that Temple here in Kelowna after searching for Buddhist Temples in the area. Unfortunately, its just as far as the Catholic Churches are, so I'm still pretty stuck with remaining at home. I had no idea how hard it would be to walk around here in Kelowna before I moved here. Everything is so far away. I'm happy to be your friend and I thank you for telling me this much information. *gassho* and God bless.
