Temple Asrama Renovations
The temple asramas are undergoing major renovations. Now, the rooms are taking shape. Almost all of the room dividers are up. Gopish explains: “The dividers do not touch the ceiling. This will allow each of the two residents in a room, one on each side of the divider, to have his or her own separate light switch, furniture and space, as well as allowing light and air flow throughout the room. I really hope the residents will like it and appreciate the work.”
The rooms will have their new electric wiring done very soon. In addition to this, all of the new eco-friendly windows will arrive by next week. The windows will be insulated, which is an important feature that had not been done in the past. These windows are actually being built locally from “Harmony Windows” in Barnesville, OH who builds to specifications with the best materials and to a very high standard.
The custom-made furniture for all the rooms is being built by an Amish carpenter also in Barnesville, OH. There will be twenty-four beds, desks and armoires, all to be made out of beautiful red oak.
There is an opportunity to help in this renovation project. We still need to collect donations in order to finish the rooms. If you would like to sponsor the custom-made furniture for one section on one side of the divider of a resident’s room, it would be $1400.00 per section. We are looking forward to seeing the improved asramas continue to take shape so that the Lord’s servants can soon move back in and be facilitated in performing their devotional service.
