Our News Feb 11, 2016

Farmden - A Hearty Congratulations to Mother Yasodamayi!  She just launched her Farmden (bigger than a garden, smaller than a farm), named Three Leaf Farmden!  She is a focused, dedicated, devotional and intelligent Vaisnavi and we send best wishes and blessings in her new service venture.  She is offering “weed wisdom walks” and we are happy to partner with her as she offers these both on her Farmden and on Gita Nagari Farm.   She also offers diverse workshops and “build your own cooking class” classes.  All Glories to the outreach endeavors of the devotees in the mission of Srila Prabhupada!
New Baby - We are most happy to announce the auspicious birth of a baby boy to our dear Sakhi Priya Prabhu.  Mother Yasoda called us this morning with the joyous news.  Please join us in sending your sincere prayers for the health of mother and child.  The Chakra dynasty continues to bring pure devotees into the world to assist Srila Prabhupada in spreading Krishna Conciousness.  When His Holiness Radhanatha Maharaja blesses the new devotee with a name, we will share that with you.
Festival - Gita Nagari will celebrate the appearance of Lord Nityananda on Saturday, February 20th..  Please fast 'til noon then join us for a class, puspanjali, arati, and maha kirtan, followed by a feast.  Look for specific details in the next newsletter.
Anniversary - As you know, 2016 is the 50th anniversary of Krishna Conciousness in America.  His Divine Grace Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Prabhupada incorporated The International Society for Krishna Conciousness in 1966 at New York City, New York.  This watershed event has changed the entire world in ways we still experience today.  Gita Nagari will host many events this year to commemorate this milestone in Prabhupada's mission.  Please join us in carrying forward the amazing movement that Chaitanya Mahaprabhu began over 500 years ago.  Those who are interested in leading an event to celebrate this anniversary should contact Theyatras@theyogafarm.com
Kirtan - Please visit our website at Gitanagari.org to enjoy our recent ecstatic kirtan held at Mukunka Dat Prabhu's cabin last Friday evening.  You are cordially invited to join us each Friday at 7pm for kirtan.
