Temple Visiting Guidelines
Dear Devotees,
As the State of Massachusetts relaxed its stay-at-home advisory, Parvati Parameshwara Temple decided to open the temple for regular darshan from Wednesday, 05/27/2020. Please read our temple re-open policies and guidelines below:
CDC and the State government authorities suggest Social distancing is our best hope to slow the spread of COVID-19. Due to space limitations, we created 30 minutes time slots during the day and will allow only 6 devotees per slot. This process will help devotees have darshan by maintaining social distance. So, we encourage all devotees who plan to visit the temple to sign up.
