GLKC had a casual New Year’s gathering and “Setsubun” Japanese Spring Traditional Bean Scattering Ritual on February 05, 2023. “Setsubun” has the intent to ward off evil spirits (Oni – Japanese Demons) and to bring good fortune (Fuku – good fortune) to the household. It was great seeing everyone and looking forward to a happy and healthy 2023!

Thank you all for the delicious and thoughtful food and refreshments!
Oni wa soto! Fuku wa uchi! （Demons go out, Good fortune stays in!）「鬼は外！福は内！」
We wish you a happy and healthy 2023!
