SUMMARY:Vaisakhi Service and Celebration
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday\, April 20\, we will celebrate the annual holiday of Vaisakhi from roughly 12:00 to 2:00 pm with the Sikh gurdwara in West Des Moines\, the Iowa Sikh Association (1115 Walnut St.). \n\n\n\nThe service will include many of the elements of a typical Sunday worship service: the signing of hymns (kirtan)\, reading from sacred scripture (Guru Granth Sahib)\, community prayers (aardas)\, and the sharing of the sacred sacrament (karah prashad\, the so-called “holy pudding”)\, after which a free vegetarian meal will be served (langar). Dress modestly\, remove shoes at door\, and don a head scarf (available at the door for both women and men). Also\, refrain from pointing outstretched legs toward the holy book/altar. \n\n\n\nThis event is part of the “Meet My Religious Neighbor” series\, which is co-programmed with CultureALL\, the Des Moines Area Religious Council\, and Interfaith Alliance of Iowa.
