Letters to Little Angels Orphanage: An opportunity to bless a child’s life

  • Ananda Temple 2171 El Camino Real Palo Alto United States (map)

Meet after Sunday Service in the Temple or outside in the piazza

"The happiness of one’s own heart alone cannot satisfy the soul; one must try to include, as necessary to one's own happiness, the happiness of others.
—Paramahansa Yogananda

In the spiritual life one becomes just like a little child, without resentment, without attachment, full of life and joy. Bring your childlike energy to this special letter writing event, and write a personal letter to one of the children of The Little Angels orphanage in Mumbai, India. 

This is a unique opportunity to touch the life of a child in another part of the world with your love and joy. You will get to choose a child, learn more about them, make a handmade card, or write a handwritten letter to them. 

Your letters of friendship, love, and light will be delivered to the children of this orphanage as gifts for Diwali (the celebration of Lord Rama’s return symbolic of the return of soul consciousness). And the children will have an opportunity to write back to you.

For those who feel inspired, the opportunity to make a small donation of $10 will be available. The funds will be used to buy presents for the orphans in celebration of Diwali.

P.S.: We will serve some yummy homemade snacks to double the fun.
