Ive been asked to say a few words at a wedding concerning the sangat in relation to gurmat. the committee want more parchaar to be done to youths who dont attend gurdwara regularly or ever so i want to say a few words just to get people and the couple to think about Sikhi more.

Also I think there are some 3ho sikh videos on youtube, by Guruka Singh, bibia, etc. on these issues, havent listened to them myself though.

i think mrsikhnet site might have some things.

will you be speaking in punjabi or english?

i'm guessing to mainly youngsters in english?

firstly, establish who GuruJi is. talk personally about how you were prior to Sikhee - e.g. negative things, if you used to come in with socks on your feet and how you didnt understand what was being said. and then thanks to reading translations and doing research you learned & how Guru Ji has affected your Jeevan for the better.

next, the meaning of Anand Kaaraj and how marriages in the west dont last long. it is not just for christmas or for life, but something deeper and when we read Gurbani we find out much more about ourselves and each other which brings practical worldly and spiritual happiness.

state what times there are classes or simran that youth usually attend so they can get Sangat & learn Gurmat..

should be projector & english translations if there is kirtan to help understanding and mention free food (ask committee if "chips & beans" type langar could be served - usually draws a crowd) :)
