Hoping to Build a New Temple - The Sikh Faith with Baljit Verdi

Not long ago I was asked by some friends to help members of the Sikh faith in their effort to build a new temple in Urbandale, Iowa. While this may seem like a hyper-local story we found the topic to be quite interesting.  My guest is Baljit Singh Verdi one of the leaders of the group. While they do have a temple (Gurudwara) in West Des Moines their congregation is growing and they envision the new facility to also become a community center which would benefit all of Urbandale.  Meet my newest friend Baljit.

Thanks for being here!
