This event is commemorated annually to invoke the blessings of Sri Ramakrishna and to pray for the spiritual awakening of the devotees. Followed by snacks and fellowship in the Monastery, from 3:30pm to 4:30pm. • Next Sunday, Jan 7, we will celebrate Swami Vivekananda’s Birthday with a puja from 11am - noon, followed by a potluck prasad lunch in the Monastery.
