SCRANTON -- A march through the streets of Scranton began a weekend of celebration for a church in Scranton.

Members of the Shree Swaminarayan Hindu Temple walked up Prescott Avenue in Scranton to their church on Thursday.

Members are getting ready to welcome the highest leader of their church, who is coming to Scranton on Sunday.

Church leaders here are glad to see such interest.

"There's too many people in the temple. That’s a good thing. It's a sign for all Hindu culture and other American cultures," Pastor Harikrishna Patel said.

The church leader coming to Scranton on Sunday is considered a manifestation of a god in the Swaminarayan Hindu religion.
