Week Ahead 20 – 26 April

Dear Friends

Hare Krishna

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Lord Jagannath. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

On behalf of the Durban Festival of Chariots Executive Committee, I would like to personally thank you for your participation and service to the festival. A festival of this magnitude is only possible by devotees coming together and endeavouring to make it a success. Thank you to all of our sponsors who continually support the festival and the many volunteers from the various organisations.

If you have any suggestions to improve the festival, please contact Umesh at umesh.prakash108@gmail.com.

Thank you once again.

Your servant,
Vibhu Caitanya Das
