Welcome to Jain Temple of Central Valley
8360 Sheldon Road, Elk Grove, CA 95624
Welcome to Jain Temple of Central Valley, a place where devotion, community, and spiritual values come together. Come for regular puja, aarti, swadhyay, and community gatherings in a peaceful and welcoming environment for families and individuals of all ages.
OUR JOURNEY
The Jain community in the region began its journey in the early 1990s, when a small group of families gathered in homes for prayers and spiritual activities. Through collective efforts and devotion, the Sheldon Road property was acquired in 2010 with the vision of establishing a Jain temple. For over 15 years, this location has served as a place of worship and community gathering. Following a mutual resolution in 2026, the community has transitioned into two independent organizations. Jain Temple of Central Valley shall carry forward the same spirit of seva, faith, and community that has been nurtured over the years.
OUR VISION:
Looking ahead, we are guided by a shared vision to develop a Shikharbandi Jain Temple a traditional temple that will serve as a spiritual and cultural center for current and future generations. We remain committed to the core Jain principles of Ahimsa (non-violence), Seva (selfless service), and compassion, while creating a space where future generations can stay connected to their spiritual roots. Whether you are new to the area or looking to reconnect with your faith, we warmly welcome you to be part of our growing community.
