Four years after acquisition, ISKCON Leicester will finally reveal major renovation to the City Centre building, allowing it to be finally used as a temple, this Saturday 30th July 2016. A perfect offering to Srila Prabhupada on the 50th anniversary of ISKCON, the renovations include a first floor temple room, kitchen, classrooms, and offices. On the second floor, a team of brahmacaris, led by HG Sutapa Das, will join HH Bhakti Prabhava Swami to take residency on the upper floors of the temple. Together, they will work on outreach, supporting the congregation, and serving the City of Leicester with a variety of educational programs. The deity of Srila Prabhupada will be carried into the new temple this Saturday, almost six years after the previous temple was destroyed in a gas blast.
