Through the “Grains of Grace” initiative, 15,000 pounds of rice and beans were distributed, impacting 45,000 lives. Beneficiaries included the Christ Episcopal Church and the Eglise Evangelique Renaissance Pantry. A “Garden of Peace” labyrinth at the ashram too was created, promoting spiritual connection. 1,000 “Divine Care Kits” were distributed, with key recipients including the Salvation Army Pantry, Christ Episcopal Church, and Eglise Evangelique Renaissance Pantry.
Pujya Gurudevshri blessed the retreat with His presence, joining in the seva yajna activities, including packing rice and beans, assembling hygiene kits, and crafting bracelets. He also adorned the labyrinth stone with flowers. The yajna ended with the distribution of 2,000 “Cheer Bracelets” to various beneficiaries. The seva yajna embodied unity, compassion and the power of giving.
