Sathya Sai Center of Raleigh

January 19th Class – 15 students were able to attend the class and participate in the in-class service project.  With support from Sai Center Aunties (Banu, Nirmala, Bharathi) the kids were divided by gender into teams to construct the stuffed animal toys for ill children at Wake Med-Cary.  The kids were able to assemble multiple stuffed elephant and teddy bear toys during the class.  We will deliver the stuffed animals to the hospital soon.  Note that there will be no class on January 26th as we will have the cooking/serving service project for Helen Wright Womens Shelter.  Many ingredients need to still be signed up for and some slots are still available for students to sign up for cooking too.  Please sign up!

January 12th Class – 13 students were able to attend the class.  Some key service projects we reviewed that we plan to do this month.  Key details for parents as well for the in-class service project on Jan. 19th for making stuffed animals toys for ill children at WakeMed in Raleigh.  Kids will need to come a bit early for the class that day (3:30pm-5pm for the service project).  Also, discussed the Service project of cooking/serving for the Women’s Shelter on Jan. 26th.  More specifics on ingredients needed for the dinner meal were shared and published in the WhatsApp groups.   More volunteer spots for cooking and serving are available for signup.  Please sign up, this is a wonderful service project!!  For the lesson plan for the Jan. 12th class we reviewed Swami’s amazing 15 Vahini’s.  We published the 15 Vahini’s and I asked each Group 4 student to review the brief summary of the Vahini that was published.  After reviewing the 15 Vahini’s I had selected key quotes in the Prema, Vidya and Sathya Sai Vahini’s for interactive Group 4 discussion.

We concluded class  with OM and 3 Shanthi’s.

Mouli Uncle.
