Every Sunday and on special events days, a pure vegetarian Preeti Bhojan is served following pooja and aarti. If you are considering sponsoring a Preeti Bhojan, please fill out a Preeti Bhojan Yajman form. The calendar for the Preeti Bhojan shows you the dates available for a Preeti Bhojan. It is recommended that you fill out the form well in advance to get your desired date.

Once you have secured a date, speak with the V.P. Program or the President. Names and numbers of these individuals are posted on this page. These individuals can guide you as to how many people to cook for, how many groceries to purchase, and for what time the meal needs to be ready for a Bhog.

A Hawan or yagna is a fire ritual where many herbs and some food items are put in to feed the holy fire. It is also done in other religions like Jainism and Buddhism. It is believed that a havan purifies the environment and the devotee as well.

A yagna and its ash purify the air, water, soil, and agriculture as found in scientific research. Reduces the harmful bacteria in the atmosphere significantly and boosts immunity.

The Hindu Society of Alberta continues to do HAWAN about twice a month and or on special occasions. Devotees can book HAWAN dates as well by calling board members to book in advance. There will be certain items that the mandir can provide to do the Hawan.

The Hindu Society of Alberta (HSA) which includes the temple is operated entirely by volunteers except the priest. The Hindu Society Volunteer Board is responsible for the governance, management, and operation of the Hindu Cultural Centre. Volunteers are needed to help in special events, with cleaning projects, prepare for poojas, fill the board positions, in the kitchen, clean up after poojas, do maintenance work, and keep the front entrance snow-free.

Please encourage your children to get involved. Young volunteers can help with many tasks listed above. Why not get the whole family to spend some time together and volunteer!
