Dear devotees,
As we welcome the New Year, I wish to extend my heartfelt greetings to each of you. May this year bring you peace, joy, and prosperity.
Reflecting on the past year, we have achieved remarkable milestones together, enriching our spiritual environment. Some notable accomplishments include:
- Completion of the Temple Commercial Kitchen Construction, with certification of occupancy received, thanks to the generous donation from Yatendra & Rani Kumar ji.
- Hiring of support staff for the kitchen, along with an authentic cook, and a soft opening on December 14, 2024. The formal opening is scheduled for January 12th, and all trustees are formally invited.
- The Temple board approved and purchased the 308 E Oak Ave building, located on the south side of our existing building, anticipating future needs.
- With the support of donations, we are supporting the Chinmaya Mission in starting a Sunday School on January 12th in the 308 E Oak building. We also have options to purchase this additional building within the next 1-2 years. The increase in participation in our cultural programs has fostered a deeper connection among our members.
- New and dedicated Pooja Services have started to meet the special needs of our community.
- New Trustees have joined our temple, and we encourage others to join. We will be reaching out to you and your friends for support in our final fundraising event in April 2025 for the expansion of the temple as above
Thank you for your unwavering support and dedication. Here’s another year of collaboration, growth, and shared success.
Wishing you and your families a Happy New Year filled with blessings!
Warm regards,
Sanjeev Kumar
