Activities for the Prayer House First Anniversary

Honorable Mayor Delores Martin of Manvel city will commemorate the first anniversary of Houston Namadwaar, a prayer house powered by the Divine Names, on March 19, 2011. The prayer house is located at 3642 Bailey Ave, Manvel, TX 77578.

A food and clothes drive benefiting the local Pearland/Manvel community will be held as part of the event between 10 AM and 12 Noon on the 19th. In the afternoon, commemorative tree plantings followed by a special anniversary celebration will be held in the presence of the Mayor.

Established by Global Organization for Divinity (G.O.D.), the Houston Namadwaar is the first prayer house of its kind in the United States, where the Divine Names are continuously chanted. It is part of G.O.D.'s worldwide initiative to strive towards universal peace and harmony through individual transformation by chanting the Divine Names of God.

The Namadwaar is open to all, transcending the boundaries of denominations, personal philosophies, religion, creed or nationality. Meditation and chanting sessions to strengthen and energize the mind are held every week. Written prayer requests are collected in a request box placed in the Namadwaar. Prayer requests can also be sent online and via e-mail. Prayers are performed for these requests every day. Prayer sessions are also conducted at residences and hospitals, as a free service, on invitation.

Other activities that are conducted weekly at Namadwaar include children's value-based enrichment programs, toddler/preschool storytimes and study groups based on Srimad Bhagavatam, a universally-applicable scripture. Spiritual discourses, workshops and chil! dren's s ummer camps are also conducted periodically. Food and clothes drives and health camps are held annually.
