Frequently Asked Questions

Q

Can I request a funeral or memorial service even if I am not a parishioner?

A

Jodoji Temple does not have a parishioner (danka) system. In recent years, funeral styles have become more diverse, and we can suggest arrangements that suit the circumstances of the bereaved family. Please feel free to contact us.

After cremation, it is also possible to hold a family funeral in the main hall.
