Kedar Maharaj did an incredible job before and during our wedding and we cannot recommend him more…read morehighly. He has a wonderful mix of a traditional and modern approach that we, our families, and all of our guests loved. To start, he was highly organized and professional. We had video calls and text discussions to ensure all of the rituals were well planned in terms of flow and necessary items were prepared. In addition to the wedding ceremony, he led janoi and choora ceremonies which he did a tremendous job on. We loved how well he explained the meanings behind all of the rituals to us as well as our guests, which made the wedding ceremony, janoi, and choora rituals more engaging and spiritual with the added context. He was also so personable and friendly and we consider ourselves blessed that he was our priest for such an auspicious occasion.

Kedar Maharaj is one of the newer priests at Shri Mandir and he led our wedding ceremony last week…read moreat the BAPs Temple Chino Hills. Leading up the wedding, he answered all our questions over calls and texts to ensure we were all aligned and prepared for the ceremony. He even suggested a zoom call with myself, my husband, and both our Moms a few weeks before the wedding to talk through the whole ceremony to ensure there were no surprises on the day and we brought all the necessary items for the ceremony. During the ceremony, he did a great job explaining the meaning behind the different rituals and making the experience inclusive for all out guests. Many of our guests commented on how much they appreciated his approach and would love to have him lead their family members' future weddings, baby shower ceremonies, etc. Overall, I appreciated his attention to detail and his modern approach. We look forward to building a stronger relationship with Kedar Maharaj for future events.

I am not a Muslim, but yesterday found myself near here and something compelled me to stop by. I…read moremyself am a new parishioner of St. Thomas More Catholic Church. I can only say one thing, sometime yesterday I got this overwhelming feeling to just reach out, and happened to come to the door and was greeted by a man, who welcomed me and sat down with me as we introduced ourselves. I had no idea the purpose of what initially brought me there but sitting down with Solomon, getting to know him and speaking about ourselves, I was in the company of a good man in the presence of God. Community, love, respect, a few things we as a country have to get back to, getting to know your neighbors, and it starts by reaching out. It's beautiful knowing that a lot of interfaith events are happening to bring the community together, but it all starts as individuals. I will say this, I was blessed to meet and be welcomed by a great man yesterday, and I am proud to be a resident in the community of such loving and welcoming people. I look forward to working together, learning together and just making our community a better place by educating the rest of the community to have open minds and hearts. Thank you for a simple and amazing experience, God bless my brothers and sisters.

There were a couple of very detailed floats in front of the temple, which were perfect for photo ops. I wanted to see what the food vendors were selling before eventually getting 3 sugar cane drinks, 2 steak dishes with jeow sauce, and some pineapple with dipping sauces. My friend also shared his coconut dessert with us, which was tasty. I liked that the vendors were very friendly and let you sample what they were selling, since you might not be familiar with their sauces. We also liked the jeow sauce so much, that we bought a bottle of it and already used it twice since then. After enjoying our food, we went inside the temple- you'll need to take off your shoes before entering. My friends got blessed by the monk and received pretty handmade bracelets! There were also some dancers on the stage, but I didn't have a chance to see them. Looking forward to come back next year!
