Sadh Sangat of Georgia, Inc. (SSGA) is a non-profit organization, and Sadh Sangat Gurudwara Sahib is one of its first premiere institutions. The idea for this organization first emerged in July 2007 during the inaugural ceremonies of the building (housing the current location of the Gurudwara Sahib) with Shri Akhand Path Sahib. Upon the urgings of a small group of devotees and community leaders, the Sadh Sangat of Gurudwara Sahib was established in August 2007. Due to the collective efforts of the community and because of the passion, persistence and generosity of its dedicated volunteers, the seedling planted a short time ago has blossomed into a beautiful institution. Sadh Sangat of Georgia has made a concerted effort in keeping hierarchical office bearers and politics out of its institutions and daily functions. It takes pride in creating an environment of openness, equality, humility, serenity and tranquility where the community can come together in peace and harmony to celebrate our heritage and promote Guru’s teachings. True to its name, Sadh Sangat of Georgia is an organization of the Sangat, by the Sangat and for the Sangat. Most of the Gurudwara functions are accomplished by the collective Sewa of the Sangat, individual members doing Sewa in various capacities on various projects. |
