吉隆坡雪隆德教会紫芳阁今日举行重阳秋祭 上午10时先行参拜师尊仪式
马来西亚雪隆德教会紫芳阁于 10 月 18 日（周日）重阳节正日举行年度秋祭，地点在吉隆坡紫芳阁盛德堂，上午 10 时先举行参拜师尊仪式，随后进行年度秋祭科仪。
德教会是东南亚华人社会的重要宗教慈善团体，源于潮州地区，紫芳阁是雪兰莪与吉隆坡地区的主要阁所之一，平时除宗教活动外也办理施医赠药、慈善救济等社区服务。秋祭是德教会的年度固定祭典，选在重阳时节举行，与当地华人敬老追远的节俗相合。
马来西亚华人社会保留完整的农历节庆传统：重阳当日除庙宇祭典外，华社团体多有敬老活动。10 月 18 日晚，槟城、怡保等地的九皇爷诞庆典也将在同一天迎来收官送神仪式。
据马来西亚《中国报》报道，紫芳阁今年的秋祭安排已对外公布，欢迎信众到阁参与，仪式按德教会科仪进行。
Kuala Lumpur's Zi Fang Ge Holds Chongyang Autumn Rites Today
The Zi Fang Ge chapter of the De Jiao (Moral Uplifting) association for Selangor and Kuala Lumpur holds its annual autumn rites today, Sunday, October 18 — the Double Ninth Festival — at its Shengde Hall in Kuala Lumpur, beginning with a 10 a.m. ceremony honoring the sect's masters.
De Jiao, a religious and charitable movement with roots in the Teochew community, is a fixture of Chinese Malaysian life; the Zi Fang Ge chapter also runs free medical and welfare services alongside its religious calendar. The autumn rite is a fixed annual observance timed to the Chongyang season of honoring elders and ancestors.
Chinese Malaysians keep a full lunar festival calendar. Tonight, Nine Emperor Gods festivals in Penang, Ipoh and elsewhere also reach their closing god-sending ceremonies on the same day.
Malaysia's China Press reported the Zi Fang Ge schedule in advance; the rites are open to devotees and follow the association's liturgy.
