Dear Friends
30th Anniversary Dates – 23-25 October
The 2015 Temple calendar advertises the 18-19 October as the anniversary celebrations. Due to GBC meetings at that time, we have moved the celebration to the next weekend. We apologise for any inconvenience.
Celebrations include: Kirtan with His Grace Agnidev Prabhu, Flower Festival and Vaishnava-sanga.

“A pure devotee, who has implicit faith in the lotus feet of the Lord, can create sacred places in any part of the world… My lord, devotees like your good self are verily holy places personified. Because you carry the Personality of Godhead within your heart, you turn all places into places of pilgrimage. (SB 1.13.10). The places are sanctified due to the presence of pure devotees; any place automatically becomes a place of pilgrimage…” SB4.6.25, purport
