12238942673?profile=RESIZE_584xIn sankirtana on the streets, the devotees of the Florianopolis temple met Alessandro (first photo), a public elementary-school teacher, who took a book and visited us at a festival. He was so impressed with the experiences that he invited us to a program to present our culture to his students.

A team led by Temple President Rasarnava Gauranga Prabhu was then assembled, with Bhakta Gustavo and Bhakta Enoque and Bhaktin Marilia (a couple from the congregation). The programs were incredible. In three schools, hundreds of children chanted Hare Krishna, received prasada, and heard about Krishna, Srila Prabhupada and ISKCON.

Srila Prabhupada: “I am very, very pleased with your program to infiltrate the schools and colleges, especially by introducing our books and classes in Krishna yoga.” (Letter to Rupanuga, 22 February 1972)

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!
