Dear Devotees
Namaste.
Thank you for your continued support of your Temple by subscribing to
Temple poojas and family sacraments conducted at your homes or at Temple.
Devotees like yourselves have made our Temple what it is. Our Priests
hopefully have supported your pooja/sacraments needs timely and to your
satisfaction. We ask of you to support your Temple this coming year by sponsoring
Temple's Brahmotsava (Temple's 15th)
With so many new devotees in our community, we are soliciting a
broader participation with an introductory sponsorship of $200.
Higher levels of sponsorship are still attractive considering
that they cover so many of poojas conducted at the Temple.
Even in the trying times we have been in from March of this year,
we have conducted all the poojas we are required to perform
thanks to our dedicated priests and volunteers.
Sincerely,
Temple's Baord of Volunteers
