Hindu Temple and Community Center of Michiana

At 19637 Dubois Avenue, South Bend — federal tax-exempt ruling dated January 2007 in IRS-derived listings; the temple's opening year is not stated in the sources consulted

The temple: Michiana's Hindu temple stands in South Bend itself, not in Osceola or Mishawaka: the Hindu Temple and Community Center of Michiana, at 19637 Dubois Avenue, South Bend. (No institution named "Bharatiya Temple" exists in St. Joseph County; Bharatiya temples documented in the region stand at Troy and Haslett, Michigan, and at Merrillville and West Lafayette, Indiana.) The temple's own site gives a South Bend mailing address (P.O. Box 6763, South Bend) and a three-body board structure, and its calendar carries daily, weekly, monthly and yearly observances, including the Murthi Sthapanas, the installations of its images. Indiana University South Bend's worship directory lists temple hours of 10 a.m. to noon and 5 to 8 p.m. daily, with aarti at 7 p.m. The temple gave the invocation at the South Bend Common Council meeting of July 25, 2016.
