Dear all, 

For many years, most of Temple's fundraising has been through volunteering devotees sponsoring Temple Festivals/ Poojas or doing seva to serve food and raise funds.

Please see below how you can sponsor forthcoming Temple festivals, daily, weekly and monthly poojas for the year 2020 and seek blessings for you and your family. 

As always, you can be present to do the sankalpam and participate in Pooja/ Abhishekam(s) or the Priests will conduct the requested pooja/abhishekams on your behalf. A log is maintained by the Priests to ensure that the sankalpas are made as per your subscriptions.

Temple's Vision 2020 is coming true

Temple Hill Road

The 3000 feet (.6 mile or 1 Km) long road with curb and gutter and storm inlets on both sides runs from Kickapoo Creek Road to Temple parking lot with beautiful hilly terrain and ravines opened on July 15, 2018. 

With Temple Hill Road officially open, we have installed a gate at Prairie Lane which will be used only for emergency purposes. Temple traffic is bypassing Prairie Lane and thereby returning the neighborhood to pre-temple days as desired by our neighbors.

Ring Road around the Temple and Parking lot 

We now have a paved ring road around the Temple, encompassing the Temple, Yagashala and parking lot.  Also, the L shaped extension of the current parking lot and the larger northern extension are paved are paved to provide enough parking for 315 cars. This is a much needed addition for our special festivals/occasions. 

Temple's Mahadwara addition with Gopuram

The two story addition with Gopuram is finally finished with an arched stairwell with limestone cap. The addition is integrated with Yagashala with added brick stair steps and side walk. The Yagashala is being extended with a brick walkway to the ring road. The new Gopuram with Om Chakra medallions and Gold plated Kalashams complements Sanctum Gopuram. The Sanctum Gopuram has new borders, painted to match Mahadwara Gopuram. 

Sanctum's expansion into Auditorium and Entrance Hall 

The upstairs entrance hall (1000 sq.ft area) is now the home of Jaya and Vijaya. It opens into Sanctum Auditorium, which now with tiled floor is the home of Navagraha Devatas and can host many diverse devotee gatherings. The Jaya/Vijaya hall with its tall tower windows and circle top entrance door and circle top windows is truly Temple's sun room and green room. The hall has panoramic view of Temple grounds including arched stairwell, Yagashala and ring road. 

The lower level hall in the Mahadwara addition  

This hall (1000 sq.ft.) will be used as a multi purpose hall (class room/lecture hall/yoga room/extension of dining area as it adjoins the kitchen). With its independent entrance, this room can host smaller gatherings for family sacraments. 

Improvements to Yagashala and its surroundings

The Bali Peetam and Dwaja Peetam were dismantled and re installed to achieve alignment with the center line of the Temple. This was a much needed improvement. With the mahadwara addition stairwell leading into Yagashala, a drain tile was installed to divert the water from Yagashala and its walls. The old storm water retention pond has been filled and the ring road is in place to surround the Yagashala. Temple's Rath Path now surrounds the Yagashala. Much of the adjacent land has been cleared to develop a beautiful grassy/ timber garden (Niravana Vana) in the near future.     

New 8 inch Water Line

The 8 inch water line that runs from Farmington Road main, under Kickapoo Creek and Creek Road and along Temple Hill Road is now pressurized and connected to fire hydrant by the Temple and a new fire hydrant at Prairie Lane entrance. This brings much needed water pressure and fire protection to the entire neighborhood. The water line has been pressure tested and accepted by PVWD. 

New 10 inch Sanitary Sewer Line  

A 10 inch sewer trunk line has been constructed. It connects to the 72 inch main sewer, runs under the two railroads and across Kickapoo Creek Road and along Temple Hill Road to the Temple.  The sewer has gone through finish testing and has been approved and accepted by GPSD. The lateral to the Temple has been connected to bypass the lift station. This has been a long standing issue with periodic pump failures. This has been a must do project. 

WOW!! Temple's Vision 2020 is finally becoming a reality

We feel truly blessed!!!
