Our Upcoming Event
Jay Jagannath!
Thank you for all the support and interest in the Jagannatha Paribar Pujas and events. The annual Puja Calendar is published. To be able to effectively plan out the events wrt necessary planning, logistics and arrangements we would request interested devotees to sign up as a sponsor for the feasible months. We will need minimum 3 sponsors to perform a monthly puja with Preetibhoj.
The sponsors get a divine experience to be closely associated in the Puja and preparation. Once you sign up one of the organizing volunteers will reach out to you for further guidance.
