Tithing -
The Contribution that Keeps on Giving
THANK YOU to all of our regular monthly tithers, and to the devotees who have just joined on to the program. Tithing covers the basics, the essential things we must do to keep the temple doors open, the daily offerings made, and the daily aratis performed. We need a regular monthly income to cover all of this. I want to also thank our many, many donors who contribute to feasts and festivals and new outfits for Sri Sri Radha Shyamsundara, Sri Sri Gaura Nitai, and Sri Sri Krishna Balarama, for gardens and projects and book distribution and more. There are so many ways to show Krishna you are His faithful servant by giving back for His seva some of the laxmi He has given you. Click here to setup automatic tithing - fill the form, print it out and bring it to office/fax it/E-mail it. Setting up tithing is super easy.
