    India Cultural Centre of Canada Gurdwara Nanak Niwas, 8600 #5 Road Richmond is a favourite place of worship for students and adults alike to visit and learn about intercultural harmony, Sikhism and the South Asian community.


    Every week at least two or three groups visit the Gurdwara for this purpose. On Saturday, March 23 students and teachers from Columbia Bible College in Abbotsford were at the Gurdwara.


    They were led by Professor Kara Bergstrom, Director of the Intercultural Studies Department.


    The group enjoyed a talk on Sikhism and the South Asian community and mouth- watering refreshments provided by the Gurdwara.


    Before leaving Ms. Bergstrom thanked Balwant Sanghera, Balbir Jawanda and the Gurdwara Management committee for a very warm welcome. Balwant Sanghera
