AAPI Heritage Month: Asian American houses of worship show vast diversity in cultures and faiths

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) — For many in the AAPI community, faith plays a huge role in creating a sense of society, culture, and tradition.

The Greater Philadelphia region is full of so many different Asian American communities.

We visit a Cambodian Buddhist monastery, a Korean Presbyterian congregation, and a temple in the heart of one of the area’s Sikh communities to show the incredible variety in practices and places of worship.
