One of our main festivals we all look forward to is the birth celebrations of 10th Guru Ji, "Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji", which will be held in the New Year (Sunday, January 9, 2022) at Guru Nanak Gurdwara Singh Sabha, Bow Lane Preston. A three-day ceremony will take place from Friday, January 7, to closure of the reciting of the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji (Holy Scriptures) on Sunday, January 9.

Due to the government guidelines, we again are adhering to the restrictions as there have been throughout since lockdown. Again this is the time where Sikhs congregation would attend and take part in religious activities including preparing, serving and consuming of hot vegetarian meals and desserts which will be prepared to take away.
