Annakut In North American Centers

This October, through the inspiration of Pramkh Swami Maharaj Annakut was celebrated at all our North American mandirs with festivity. At 51 centers in USA and Canada, different varieties of vegetarian dishes were offered to the Lord on Annakut.
Combined with many socially useful projects like blood donation camps, medical diagnostic camps, and health awareness exhibitions, the devotees also enjoyed video darshan of Swamishri at these centers. The number of dishes offered and devotees who came for darshan at some of these centers is given below. Many more centers also celebrated the festival enthusiastically and with devotion.
