Devotees, please note change in mileage charges: Because of the increasing gasoline prices, the IRS has changed mileage charges. Effective July 1, 2008, devotees are requested to pay 60 C/mile when priests come to their homes for pooja. This amount is paid directly to the priest.

Brick Sponsorship Program: Once construction of the new Yaga Saala is completed, commemorative bricks will be installed on the walkway from the siva temple parking lot, leading to the temples. Upto 3,000 bricks will be needed for this work. So far, about 700 bricks have been sponsored. Please contact the office manger at 770 907 7102 or Narender Reddy at ngreddy9@aol.com and help us with this project.

Free pooja for welfare of families: Temple will offer free pooja for needy families on Sundays, beginning June 8th. One archana will be performed in Balaji temple at 4 PM and another archana will be performed in Siva Temple at 4 30 PM. This program may evolve based on the needs of the families. Devotees who are going through difficult times may visit the temple at the specified times and seek the blessings of Sri Venkateswara and Sri Ramalingeswara.

Vahana Pooja timings at the temple
Dear Devotees: Please note that Vahana Pooja can be performed after 2 PM on weekends, and any time during temple hours during weekdays. Due to the many activities demanding priests' time during weekends, it has become very difficult to perform Vahana poojas before 2 PM on weekends.  Please consider this and plan your visit to the temple accordingly. If you need more information, please contact the temple manager at 770 907 7102.
