The service at the Gurdwara Sahib normally consists of a combination of sermons and singing of Shabads (hymns from the Guru Granth Sahib Ji). All ends with the Ardaas, a special prayer that is spoken by the Granthee while the congregation stands with folded hands. The blessed pudding of Parshaad (a sanctified delicacy made from flour, butter, and sugar), is then distributed to all. The Sunday congregation usually runs from 9:45am to 6pm – see the Sunday Program timings below.

We run weekly Sunday class to teach Kirtan. Kirtan/Keertan is the language of the spirit that breaks the barriers of creed and religions, that awakens the Amrit Naam in the soul and fills the heart with humility. Practicing, listening and performing keertan takes people on a journey where they merge into the divine compositions of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji, the eternal guru of the Sikhs. Guru Arjan Dev Ji compiled Gurbani into 31 different ragas or musical signatures and 17 different Ghars or rhythms.

Punjabi language school is running in full swing at Launceston Gurdwara Sahib at 6A Atkinsons Rd, Legana. We are having weekly Punjabi Language classes every Sunday. Recently we provided very good books (which are designed for kids by great scholars for Classwork and Homework) to our students. Also, we opened up the library from where our students can get access to new books every week. That is the favourite part of our students. All these resources are free for the community.

We encourage more parents to get their children enrolled in this Free Weekly Punjabi Classes so that they can get the benefit from all available resources and can learn their mother tongue Punjabi.

We warmly welcome everyone to join our Gurbani Santhya Class, held every Saturday. These classes provide a friendly and supportive environment to learn how to read and understand Gurbani with correct pronunciation and proper pausing (vishraams).

Whether you are a beginner or wish to improve your Gurbani reading skills, the classes are open to all ages and skill levels. Come and strengthen your connection with Gurbani while learning alongside Sangat.
