12PM - 2PM

Kirtan is the call and response chanting of ancient Sanskrit mantras. By meditating on these sacred sounds we reach a state far beyond the stress and worries of life. You don’t have to have a great voice and you don’t have to know sanskrit. All you need is a desire and an open heart.

​

All are welcome to join us in this congregational practice in the temple room on Sundays.

GROUP DISCUSSION

sundays
2PM - 3PM

Two nourishing options are available for lunch on Sundays:

  • Govinda's Food Court in the lower level of the Temple, where specialty items & a buffet are available for purchase from 11am-7pm on Saturdays & Sundays.
  • A free prasadam lunch served on Sundays from 2-3pm either outside or in the Subha Laxmi Hall (depending on weather). Prasadam literally means “mercy” and devotees of ISKCON use this term to describe pure vegetarian food that has been offered to Lord Krishna. ​

I'M NEW

TO THIS COMMUNITY

Our Sunday Open Houses are uplifting and relaxed. On Sundays, we offer different program options simultaneously so you can find the environment that works best for you that day. Come as you are and expect to feel welcomed as our guest.

You are welcome to visit in casual or dressy clothing. If you plan to spend time sitting on the Temple Room floor in kirtan, you may want to consider wearing clothing that is not restrictive. While in the Temple Room, we ask that you remove your shoes
