News & Updates

Thank you to Alina (Avinashi) Uzhvieva for joining the Technology Support Team. We appreciate your help! Welcome Kelly (Kushala) Sharp, our new AV Team Coordinator. Thank you to Andrew Grunwald for your time on our AV Team.

Lori (Priya) Kenney is coordinating a new project in our Documentation Team, with the help of Denise (Divyaa) Bellingham, Caroline (Nitya) Kutil & Ellen (Lajja) Mitchell, who have joined the team. Thank you all!

Open Sevas

We need help with several On-Site sevas, including our baking team and AV tech (we train you!). Online seva openings are all computer sevas, where you support from home. We train you for these as well.

Let us know if you're available: seva@svaroopayoga.org. You’ll hear from our Seva Coordinator, Denise (Devapriyaa) Hills. Thank you.
