In light of new COVID-19 restrictions, the team got together this past weekend to discuss how to maintain the highest level of education during this time. The team discussed unique ways to ensure the continuation of Punjabi, Santhia, Sikh Studies and Kirtan classes.

This past weekend, Gurmat Center received its very own copies of the “Sri Guru Nanak Sakhi Sagar'' book! This 240 paged colour book contains beautiful life stories of Dhan Sri Guru Nanak Dev Jee. The book contains never before seen illustrations and is a great storytime resource for parents and also a self learning tool for youth. Sevadars and students were very excited to take a look at the books today!

Appreciation post for our wonderful Punjabi Class teachers! These dedicated Sevadars have been teaching Punjabi at Gurmat Center for many years. They are very passionate about teaching and always come up with unique teaching methods to engage their students. With midterms coming up, teachers have been helping students prepare for these exams by providing extra resources such as practice exams. May Guru Jee keep blessing them with this Seva of teaching students Gurmukhi.

Since the last week of October, students have been working hard in their Punjabi Challenge exam class.
