FULFILLMENT OF A DREAM

Our Temple has come to symbolize the commitment, dedication and hard work of many individuals and Families in greater Greenville area, including surrounding cities and States. Contribution made by these individuals and families will be recognized silently with feeling of gratitude in the mind of everyone who enters the Temple hall. But more importantly, no names shall be missed in the BOOKS of THE GOD.

Whatever accomplished is just a beginning. We all shall play active roles and shoulder important responsibilities to continue to sustain, nurture, share and promote our Hindu religious faith.
 

Here is a pictorial story of how it all started...
