Mr. Ran Perhar is a valued member of the Crestwood community. In the spring of 2013 he welcomed Crestwood students to his gurdwara, and in the winter of that year Mr. Hawkins’ World Religions Class had the opportunity to return the welcome.
Mr. Perhar was able to offer students a glimpse into how Sikh beliefs influence his daily life and actions. He also discussed the history of Sikhism in Canada, and how the Sikh community has come to be a prosperous and significant contributor to the Canadian cultural mosaic.
