(CANCELLED) My Neighbour's Faith: Visit to the Hindu Mission Temple
Interested in getting an interfaith glimpse into Montreal鈥檚 vibrant Hindu community? Students are invited to join MORSL for a My Neighbour鈥檚 Faith visit to the Hindu Mission temple to explore the beliefs and traditions of Hinduism.

The Hindu Mission is the oldest Hindu temple in Montreal. Offering daily worship as well as special pujas and services, the temple (or mandir) represents a space for faith, learning and community service. A free community meal is offered after worship every Sunday.

Please dress professionally, keeping in mind that absolutely no leather is allowed in the Hindu Mission (e.g. shoes, bags, belts). Please also note that participants will be asked to remove their shoes before entering the worship area.
