Paramahansa Yogananda Dihika, India 1935
"Life is worth nothing if it is not a continuous overcoming of problems. Each problem that waits for a solution at your hand is a religious duty imposed upon you by life itself. Any escape from problems, physical or mental, is an escape from life, as there can be no life that is not full of problems."
-Paramahansa Yogananda Where There is Light Self-Realization Fellowship Publishers |

Chapel 2020 Building Fund
Our Building Fund balance as of Nov. 30, 2018 is $287,320. The balance in our fund is held by Mother Center and is under their tax exempt status. We receive an accounting of the balance periodically from Center Department.
Thank you for your support of our local building fund.
We have an LTPC (Long Term Planning Committee) committee consisting of John Salih, Chairman, Khraish Khraish, and Chandra McCormack. These members look over the possible properties that are brought to them, from time to time, for analysis of suitability for our needs.These properties are found by devotees who spot properties they happen to see while out doing their normal activities and by two devotees who have access to specialized real estate databases.
Of main consideration are the monthly cost requirements for upkeep and maintenance that our group can afford at the present time. Mother Center will not allow a group to be overburdened with debt as that is contrary to our main purpose, which is meditation on God and Guru.
