🇫🇷 A memorable day in Paris with the children of Europe. ❤️ Swamishri reminded young ones how they can care for the mandir. He also joined them in games and shared many warm smiles. 🎈At the end, look out for the sweet moment with a balloon. It’s a small but wonderful glimpse of Swamishri’s humility and divyabhav towards all. ▶️ Watch it here: https://youtu.be/_A1pl8d5qf8?si=TXLRRl_uIpRA4_sw

Jay Swaminarayan! Registration is in the school until 5:30 PM, and then moves to the mandir courtyard until 6:00 PM. After sabha, the balaks and balikas will receive their smruti bhet. Once they have collected the bhet, you can pick up your child and sign them out through their group lead before heading to dinner. Please do not collect your child without signing them out through their group lead.

Jay Swaminarayan Respected Parents and Guardians Please note that registration is taking place in the School across the road from Mandir. If your Bal-Balika is yet to register then please make your way to the school to register your child. Jay Swaminarayan
