Past Board of Trustees and Executive Committee members' Recognition - Friday, June 28

Since JSMC's inception in 1970, many leaders have contributed their heart and soul to make JSMC what it is today - one of the leading Jain Organizations in North America with 1600 Jain families actively participating in religious, social, and fun activities all year around. For the last 40+ years at JSMC, we have seen many great leaders who have contributed in so many ways to make JSMC stronger. Today we enjoy a beautiful temple, large facility, and active membership.

Let us all celebrate JSMC's success, and recognize all the leaders of the JSMC. On behalf of our Sangh and the Board of Trustees and the Executive Committee, we invite you to attend this very important event which reunites all the past and present leaders of the JSMC and provides a platform to recognize our successes and identify opportunities for the future growth of the JSMC.

Please review list of BOT/EC since year 1999 - click here. If we have missed someone, please let us know right away.
