Namaskar!

Dear Devotees:

As you know, a new team has assumed the responsibility of managing our Temple since July 1st. On behalf of the Executive committee, I would like to thank all the patrons and the congregation for placing your trust in us. We will make every effort to live up to your expectations.

We are also thankful to all the past leaderships for their selfless devotion and hard work in developing our Temple to become one of the best temples in North America. We will continue to seek and trust the opinions of those respectable people who have been associated with this temple and contributed for many years. With their help and support, this new team will continue to keep the growth and momentum by taking a positive look at the possibilities for the progress and future of this Temple.

On a day to day basis, our Temple is run with the help of a lot of volunteers from the congregation. In addition to the volunteer priests, we have numerous other ‘behind the curtain’ volunteers who help with the cooking and serving of mahaprasad, cleaning and maintaining the premises and washing and ironing clothes of deities, etc. On behalf of the Executive Committee, I sincerely thank all of them and request their continued support. Also, we encourage and request more members of the congregation to get involved with these volunteer activities at the Temple.

My team is geared up for an active year to provide service to this community. The primary focus of our temple is to satisfy religious needs of the devotees on a regular basis and cater to the devotees’ special religious ceremonial needs whenever required. With the help of our Panditjis and our volunteer priests we will continue to make every effort to cater to all the religious needs of the devotees. We will also strive to promote our religious and cultural values to our future generation through cultural events, and the services provided by our Balavihar.

Needless to say, in order to continue to maintain and grow our Temple, we will need your continued financial support. We urge you to be generous in your financial contributions to the Temple and would like to encourage regular monthly donations from all members of the congregation.

As always, we welcome and value your ideas and suggestions for the improvement and betterment of this Temple. Please contact me or one of the members of the management if you would like to get involved in serving this Temple.

Wishing you all well and Namaskaar

Sanjay Varma
President, Executive Committee
