PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE – JULY 2018
Dear Brothers, Sisters and loving young friends,
Jai Shree Ram!
I would like to begin with thanking YOU ALL for joining in the Summer Activities held during the month of June…we had a
fun filled Picnic in Busse Woods on June 10, and an entertaining Fathers’ Day program in the temple on June 16. I want
to express my sincere gratitude to all the Members of my TEAM – both the Boards – for doing an excellent job in making
appropriate arrangements for these programs.
Although it was a cloudy/rainy day for an outdoor event like PICNIC, we still ended up with a decent crowd and
everybody who came, enjoyed the day! A steady flow of Food & Snacks items kept the appetite going, Games & Sports
Events for the Kids, Youth, Ladies & Gents kept everybody on their toes. Fruits of the season – Mangoes & Watermelons,
have always been a great attraction, and the young & old, all relished the same! Another attractive stall was set up by
Mr. Patel for Pop Corn and the “Barf ka Gola” – which reminded of the rustic cold treats of Summer back home in India.
The day ended with gifts for all the Participants and prizes to the Winners.
Every Year, Fathers’ Day is celebrated in HOM as a Family Fun Day - a cultural evening of Songs, Bollywood & Folk
Dances, Shair-o-Shairi, Jokes etc followed by a Lavish Dinner. This year, we had a special RETRO THEME of old songs. I
am so grateful and proud of the members of my HOM Parivar, who on my one appeal, came dressed in Black & White, to
re-live the spirit of the Golden Era. Couples took special efforts to dress up like the old Bollywood Movie Stars, and
brought alive the spirit of those melodious songs. Popular Singers of Chicagoland, like Pratibha Jairath, Raju Bankapur,
Chetan Trivedi, Uma Nath & Rakshak Bhansali regaled the audiences with their beautiful voices and evergreen songs. My
THANKS to all the participants, attendees, volunteers and team members.
Fathers’ Day on the 17th of June, was also celebrated in the Sunday Congregation. Children from the Hindi Class recited
poems, spoke words of praise, and sang songs in honor of their Dads. They also made beautiful Cards to pay tributes to
their respected fathers. As it has become a custom in HOM, over the years, on Fathers’ Day, Dedicated Members of the
Community are recognized for their outstanding services. This year Mr. Ram Verma was chosen to be honored with the
Title of “The Care Taker of HOM”.
Due to the sudden demise of Ms Nirmal Bagga recently, the Mahila Satsang Group also needed a new Chairperson. Ms
Manisha Garg was appointed as the as the new Chairperson of the Ladies Group, and commended for her sincere efforts
in carrying forward the activities of this group.
I would like to draw your attention to the upcoming Baba Balak Nath Murti Sthapna in July. Mr. Ashok & Shama Sharma
took the lead 2yrs ago, and have been organizing Baba Balak Nath Jis Bhajans / Chowkis on a regular basis. Both the
Boards have jointly decided to install a 5Ft Tall Murti. Bunty Bawa, renowned Bhakt and Singer from California will be
joining us on July 29th Bhandara. I would APPEAL to all of you to please donate generously and help the Temple in raising
Funds for this holy purpose.
Lots of more Fun Activities lined up in the months of August & September…stay tuned!!!
With Sincere Regards,
Wish everyone having anniversary this month a Very Happy Anniversary.
BIRTHDAY WISHES
Wish everyone having Birthday this month a Very Happy Birthday.
