GURU NANAK MISSION SIKH CENTER
HISTORY, MISSION & VISION

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.
