Gurudwara Jacksonville – FL
Description

The Sikh Society of Northeast Florida (SSNEF) Gurudwara, located at 6035 E Morrow St in Jacksonville, is a vibrant spiritual and community hub dedicated to promoting the teachings of the Sikh faith. As a place of worship and assembly for Sikhs, the gurudwara welcomes people of all backgrounds to join in prayer, meditation, and communal gatherings. Upholding the core Sikh values of equality, selfless service (Seva), and universal brotherhood, the gurudwara features a langar (free community kitchen) open to everyone, regardless of faith or status. Visitors can participate in weekly Sunday services, including Kirtan (singing hymns from the Guru Granth Sahib), followed by langar. The gurudwara also hosts cultural, educational, and humanitarian activities, contributing to the local community in Jacksonville and surrounding areas.

Key Features

Welcoming to all: Like all gurdwaras, the Jacksonville Gurudwara has four entrance doors, symbolizing that people from all four directions are welcome, regardless of status, gender, religion, or wealth.

Guru Granth Sahib: The sacred Sikh scripture is present in the main hall (Darbar Sahib) on a raised platform (Takht), treated with the respect of a living guru.

Langar (Free Community Kitchen): A core feature of the gurdwara is its langar hall, which offers free lacto-vegetarian meals prepared and served by volunteers. Everyone, regardless of background, sits on the floor together to eat, reinforcing the principle of equality.

Seva (Selfless Service): The community kitchen and many other gurdwara functions are run by volunteers performing seva, a key tenet of Sikhism.

Kirtan (Hymn Singing): Congregational singing of hymns from the Guru Granth Sahib is a central part of the weekly Sunday service.

Nishan Sahib (Sikh Flag): A tall flagpole flying the Sikh flag, or Nishan Sahib, with the Sikh emblem (Khanda) marks the gurdwara, signaling that it is a place of refuge and hospitality.

Community Center: The gurdwara serves as more than a place of worship, offering a space for community engagement, cultural events, and support for charitable causes.
