Shirdi Sai Baba Temple (Coming Soon)

In 2023 we’ll be celebrating Skanda Vale’s 50th Anniversary with a series of major projects, including the inauguration of a new temple for Shirdi Sai Baba.

The new temple is located near the Sri Ranganatha Temple. A life-sized murthi has been commissioned and the Prana Pratishtha consecration takes place in June 2023.

You can lend your support to the project and get involved by offering your skills in building, cooking, cleaning and more.
