Community Projects at the Gurdwara

WaheguruJeeKaaKhalsa WaheguruJeeKeeFateh!

Sangat Jee,

Over the past few months at the Gurdwara there have been a couple of projects which have been run by the Sisters (Bhen Jees) in the Sangat.

They have been setup by them and run by them, we find that if the women in the sangat start taking a role in doing something in the Gurdwara then it will be much more productive if it was run by the Gurdwara itself or its comittees. We are lucky that the Gurdwara actively supports and encourages new ideas.

So below is a list of whats new or recently setup, everyone is welcome to come and join in or even help out.

MONDAYS - Ladies Fitness Class -6pm-7pm, there is a Ladies only (13+Years old) fitness class. The Intructor is professionaly qulaified. See poster below for more details.

TUESDAYS - COOKING CLASSES - 6pm-9pm - This class has become very popular just by word of mouth. It has nearly come to the end of its 12 week trial and those who participate have come back with very positive remarks about the class. We hope to start another class in the new year, so if you are new to cooking or want to learn how to make Indian/Punjabi food in a nice atmosphere then come down on Tuesday and ask for another set of classes in the New Year. The cost is £2 per class and this is for Ingredients and equipment.

FRIDAYS - KHALSA CLUB - 6pm-7pm - This is a class for young kids, who want to learn Sikhi in a fun way. The Class is led by a experienced teacher who has run classes like this for a few years now. The class is very popular and has around 30+ kids already.

All the above is run by Sevadaars who have taken time out to contribute to making the Gurdwara more Sangat oriented. If you think you can do seva in any of these classes or just want to join in and contribute or just participate then please feel welcome to come.

Please remember if we want Gurdwara’s to change then we must also be prepared to do something and just not talk about change! As the saying goes ‘Actions speak louder than words’.

Sangat Jee,

Alot of the sangat have tried to attach URL’s of MP3’s on this site to forums and have had problems due to the file manager we have been using.

Fortunatley we have changed the File manager today over to a more user freindly one. If you goto the MP3 section the layout has not changed much, but you are now allowed to link to the files on this website from other websites or Forums.

We know it was fustrating for those who wanted others to listen to the files and hope that from now on you can.

If any problems please advise us as we can only correct if someone notifies us.

Bhul Chuk Marf Karna!

P.S. AKHAND PAATH STARTS TOMORROW AT 10AM (HALL 5 UPSTAIRS)  AT SRI GURU SINGH SABHA GURDWARA, COVENTRY, CROSS ROAD.

Dear Sangat Jee,

AKJ UK (Coventry) Invites EVERYONE to join in a Akhand Paath in rememberance of those Gursikhs who died in the Genocide of 1984 (Dehli Riots) and for the Chardi Kala of the Panth on Friday 16th November, Akhand Paath starts at 10am.

Please take some time out and come and listen to the Akhand Paath. A humble benthi from the sevadaars is to try and listen to as much of the Akhand Paath as possible (If you haven’t sat through for long periods in a Akhand Paath a suggestion is to try for at least 10 hours during the whole Akhand Paath).

There will be Keertan straight after the Akhand Paath in the Main Hall 10am - 1pm.

Sorry for the late notice.

Bhul Chuk Marf Karna!
