| Welcome to Self-Realization Fellowship Glendale Temple |
Glendale Temple
Nestled in the sunny hills of Glendale, California, this temple is a branch of Self-Realization Fellowship, the international nonprofit society founded by one of the preeminent spiritual figures of our time -- Paramahansa Yogananda.
Since its inception in 1920,
Self-Realization Fellowship (SRF) has introduced truth-seekers worldwide to India's age-old philosophy of Yoga and its time-honored tradition of meditation.
The Glendale Temple is the result of a generous gift to SRF and to all truth-seekers. Everyone is welcome to attend our weekly public lectures, meditations, Sunday School classes for children and other events aimed to disseminate the timeless teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda and help us create spiritually harmonious lives, and a more compassionate and peaceful world.

Announcements
*We are pleased to announce that two new CD's recorded by the nuns and monks of SRF are available at the Bookroom. The titles are: "When Thy Song Flows Through Me" and "I Will Be Thine Always." These were previously available in cassette format.
*All are welcome to join us on Saturday, February 13th for an evening of devotional Bhajan chanting at 8p.m. in the sanctuary.
*February’s Day of Service is on Saturday the 20th from 10a.m. to 4p.m., and if you have been looking for a chance to get more involved with the temple, this is a great first step. Come for all of the day, or just drop in. Each Day of Service begins with a brief meditation, then our coordinators will offer you a list of projects from which to choose. A delicious lunch is served at 1:15p.m. Please join us to help keep our temple beautiful.
*Paramahansa Yogananda said, “This can wait, and that can wait, but your search for God cannot wait.” All day group meditations provide a unique opportunity to leave behind all responsibilities and focus whole-heartedly on our search for God. There will be a 6-hour meditation commemorating Paramahansa Yogananda’s mahasamadhi on February 27th from 10a.m. to 4p.m. We hope you can join us. If you are unable to come at 10a.m. for the morning portion of the meditation, please plan to enter during the short break at 1p.m.

2009 Christmas Visit to Path Achieve Homeless Shelter
In the spirit of giving to those in need, and what has become an annual tradition for the past 11 years, members and monastics of the Self Realization Fellowship Glendale Temple volunteered their time to celebrate a fabulous Christmas at Path Achieve homeless shelter in Glendale.
Since 1997, Path Achieve Glendale has worked with homeless families and individuals. In addition to providing for their basic needs (such as food and clothing), they have also created a portfolio of tools and resources that help them move from the streets into permanent housing.

Santa Comes to Glendale
‘twas a fortnight before Christmas when on a cold and blustery day loud sounds clattered about outside the Glendale Temple Social Hall. Children of all ages rose from their seats to see what could cause such a commotion! Before they could reach the doors, Santa and his elf came bounding in, dressed in red and white, with twinkles in their eyes and smiles on their faces!
To the delight of all, Santa spoke with the children and heard tales of their Christmas wishes. While members of the congregation jubilantly watched Santa, they feasted on potluck dishes from around the world.
Before Santa left he wished all the Happiest of Christmas Seasons!

Glendale Holds First Annual Fall Festival!
On Sunday November 8th, Glendale Temple held its first Annual Fall Festival. Fun activities for the day included a delicious vegetarian lunch and a huge craft fair with hand-made cards, ornaments, plants, clothing, organic foods, framed pictures and many other spiritually-themed items. One of the highlights of the day was a raffle with 15 donated items, including original artwork created by members of the congregation.
During the course of the 4 hour festival, attendees were entertained by over 40 local talented stage performers. Our Sunday School children also performed a play to the delight of the audience! A delicious bake sale provided delectable treats for all; a variety of activities, including face-painting and balloon-tying, were also provided for our young guests.
Proceeds from the day benefited Path Achieve for the Homeless and Glendale Temple. Thanks to all who participated in this fun day of fellowship!

Focus On: East Lobby Atrium Tile Project
Those entering the temple recently from the East Lobby entrance have probably noticed a new tile surface in the atrium patio. The design represents a koi pond with swans and lotuses. Designed by a temple member, with the help of a graphic artist and our minister, the project began last December.
