Sai Centre: Cooksville
Sri Sai Satcharitra Parayan at Cooksville Sai Centre
On Monday, May 21st we had planned to commence our reading at 6 am of the Sri Shirdi Sai Satcharitra with a prayer to Lord Ganesha. Devotees took turns reading the various chapters depicting Shirdi Sai Baba’s life while others followed along with the respective copies of their books. It was truly a pleasant and uplifting experience. There were 51 chapters to complete and each chapter descriptively explained how Shirdi Sai Baba led His life. The Satcharitra also provided all devotees an opportunity to absorb the valuable insightful teachings, imparted by Sri Shirdi Sai Baba.

Blood Donation Drive
Tuesday April 17th, was a bitterly cold day, and there was ice on the streets and sidewalks as far as the eyes could see; however, the inclement weather did not dampen the loving spirit and undiluted generosity of Swami’s devotees of Region 1. Region 1 was given a window of time between 6 and 8pm by the Canadian Blood Service. Devotees drove in straight from work despite their hectic schedules, the harsh weather and poor driving conditions.
