This is our family temple named 'Ri-n shy-o-u ji';(Temple of bell).
The main temple became so old that rain dropped down from the ceiling and the roofs flew away when the typhoon brought heavy wind.
So we decided to build a new one and began to save money about four years ago.
Today was the beginning of construction and a ceremony called 'Mu-ne-a-ge shi-ki' or 'Jyo-u-to-u-shi-ki' will be held tomorrow afternoon.
Lots of red and white rice cakes will be scattered from second floor of the building cereblating the construction then.
So we made red and white rice cake.
The number we made today is about 8000 using 280kg rice.
About 40 members of the temple cooperated together, cutting trees and cleaning the precincts and so on.
We will be able to see a newly built temple after a year later.
