Katha
- Shri Krishna Darshan & Srimad Bhagvad Sar
Sunday July 20th thru Sat July 26th 2008 |
|
Pujya Shri Yogeshbhai is a world renowned Kathakar and
possesses boundless knowledge of Gita, Bhagavat, and other
scriptures. Wherever he has recited Katha, he has won hearts and
minds of all the listeners with his affectionate, simple, but
highly effective oratory during Katha. Even today, participants
in his Bhagavat Saptah last year in our Hindu Center remember
and praise him for his extra ordinary performance. We feel very
blessed to have him again this year.

A
Special Note From-
Chairman Of Board & President |
|
April 15th, 2008
Dear Friends,
As you all know our community is growing inside and around
Charlotte. On any religious function or big event it is very
difficult to get inside the Vedant Hall of Hindu Center. Two
years ago we got the approval of expansion project of Vedant
Hall from the city, but we could not start the construction due
to lack of funds. So far we could raise only two hundred
thousand dollars which we still have in CD account. To full fill
our dream we must raise one million dollars to complete the
project which will help to preserve and promote our rich
religious heritage in the generations to come.
To raise the funds, the management has taken few steps as
follows:
1. Prasad prepared inside the temple by the volunteers, offered
to and blessed by all the deities will be mailed to the
prospective donors. First shipment will be ready to mail
very soon for the donations of dollars one hundred fifty and
plus.
2. We have appointed an recognition committee of eight members
headed by DC Patel to come up with the recommendations of
different levels of recognitions and honor of prospective donors
in kind of plaque, engraved bricks or stone on the walls of
Hindu Center to help in raising funds. Committee is working hard
and very soon we will come back to you with the recommendations.
3. We also have appointed a nine members committee headed by
Ravi Patel to revise the structure of Board of Trustees to
accommodate and make the potential donors as permanent member of
the board of trustees. Hindu Center will still be run by the
elected body of Executive Committee and three trustees ( one per
year ) will also be elected. Special status and little honor to
potential donors will help to raise funds for upcoming projects
like Gandhi Plaza and Sports complex.
Now is the time to
make changes to keep up with the growth of our community and
today I am calling for all the members of Hindu Center to please
give us your thoughts and comments as soon as possible. You
don't have to declare your name, just mail or fax for the
attention of Chairman of Board of Trustees. Your input will
certainly help us to take the right decision. We will also
appreciate your concerns and involvement in the process of
making Hindu Center better place of worship for our children.
Thanks and GOD bless you all.
