The Pasadena Junior YBA

Junior YBA is a unique way for teenagers in high school to experience and learn about Buddhism.  Our Junior YBA members connect with other Temple's Junior YBA groups and attend various seminars and social events. Our current President is Panther Jones, and Religious Chair is Ren Gibbs. ​Contact Kyoko Gibbs, Jr YBA advisor if you have any questions!

Ren Gibbs and Lia Meza were awarded the Amy Utsunomiya Service Award during service. It was presented to them by Wade Utsunomiya.
