About Guru Nanak Mission Sikh Center

**Guru Nanak Mission Sikh Center** Established in the summer of 1989, the Guru Nanak Mission Sikh Center began its journey as the "Sikh Temple of Bakersfield." Over time, it evolved into the "Sikh Center of Southern San Joaquin Valley." In 1997, a significant opportunity arose to purchase 17 acres of land, leading to the formation of the Guru Nanak Mission of Bakersfield in 2003. Inaugural religious services commenced at the current location in January 2007. The Gurdwara serves as a spiritual hub, offering religious services and fostering community engagement. While specific details on all services are not provided, the center is dedicated to the spiritual and social well-being of its community. Its unique feature is its significant landholding, acquired in 1997, which provides ample space for its Gurdwara and future community facilities, demonstrating a long-term commitment to serving the Sikh population in Kern County.

History

In the summer of 1989, the Sikh settlers in Kern County opened their first Gurdwara (Sikh House of Worship) under the name of the “Sikh Temple of Bakersfield” located at 1925 Planz Road, Bakersfield, California. Subsequently, the Sikh Temple of Bakersfield’s name was changed to “Sikh Center of Southern San Joaquin Valley.” In 1997, a group of Sikh leaders came across an opportunity to purchase 17 acres of land between South “H” street and Freeway 99, sharing its south boundary with an existing church, a highly desirable location to build a Gurdwara and other community facilities. In 2003 the group formed the Guru Nanak Mission of Bakersfield a California religious corporation. The Guru Nanak Mission held its inaugural religious services at this location in January 2007.
