Over the past eight years the Vihara, has provided a tremendous opportunity for all Buddhists in the Great Lakes area and neighboring states to congregate for regular religious activities. Since it's inception, vihara has conducted Vesak, Poson and Katina celebrations and meditation retreats under the leadership of the chief resident monk Brahmanagama Muditha Thero and resident monks Ven.

Today, the vihara is a place for worship, a place for meditation, a place for learning, and a place for fellowship. The Great Lakes Buddhist Vihara is committed to provide a serene setting for worship and prayer to all Buddhists in their own ways.
