Sri:

Please accept adiyEn's humble pranams:

This is a very noble thought, but please think through the details before 
embarking on this.

Please forgive adiyEn for bringing out these points.

Why are we building a new temple, 
Would a community center or a Ramalayam serve the same purpose, this would be a 
better for building communities.

Would we have kids, if we cannot feed and cloth them properly.

When you build a temple, and do proper pratishtai, and Lord takes the Archaform 
for us.
You have asked Lord to to come and be in that temple, for the rest of the this 
yuga you have to maintain this temple.
not 100 Yrs, 200 yrs, but for as long as the Lord is in the Archaform there, 
you have to make sure he gets all the services.

There are so many temples in India that are struggling to even feed and cloth 
the lord, 
Some of them are also Dhivya Desams (sung and glorified by Azhvars)

Maintaining an ancient temple is better than building a hundred new ones. 
That is the reason why Yasoda who brought up Sri Krishna, attained greater 
eminence compared to 
Devaki who gave birth to Him. When the temple is a Divyadesam this is all the 
more significant
