During early 1960s very few Hindu families had settled in Manitoba, who were living mostly in Winnipeg. The early settlers were mostly Professionals, as Teachers, Professors, Physicians and others. A few more families trickled here during early 1970s. There was no common place of worship or congregation.In 1970, a few families floated the idea of incorporating The Manitoba Hindu Society as a religious and charitable organization and Society was registered on December 9th. 1970. The Society started holding an annual Diwali Celebration at St. Mary's Road United Church. The activities of the society became extended to observing major Hindu Festivals. In addition to the Diwali, Maha shivratri, Ram Navami and Krishna Janmashtmi got celebrated at one Hall or another, and Sunday prayer meetings were added. These Sunday meetings became popular and used to be held at random at the homes of the devotees and then regularly at the International Centre.
