Notes
1. If you wish to sponsor Abishekams for deities at other than scheduled/published times, please pay an additional $20 for each Abishekam.
2. If devotees need a second priest for a function then subject to priests availability, the total charges will be double the normal charges that apply. For instance if a devotee wants two priests for a Homam in the temple , the total charges are $ 150 + $ 15 + $ 15 = $ 180.
3. The temple donation for out-of-town visits ( places outside a one and half hour commute) is $ 300 per day (computed from the time the priest leaves the temple). The dakshina amount is 20% of the total charges. Out-of-town visits are subject to the availability of priests.
4. For requests for priest’s overnight stay for devotees within commuting distance add $ 100 to the total charges and $ 20 to the recommended dakshina. Priest’s overnight stay is subject to the availability of priests.

NOTE: If you are sending any checks for various services offered at the temple or donations, please write down your Murugan Temple Membership ID (if you know the ID) or at the very least ensure that your latest address is noted on your check. This helps saves us in ensuring that when we send you your tax donation receipt.
