Hello Friends,

 

Ramadan has just begun, a month of prayer, reflection and community building for our Muslim neighbors. Throughout this month, Muslims will fast during daylight hours and end their fast every evening at sunset with an Iftar dinner (breaking of fast).

 

In the spirit of this season, you are warmly invited to a Community Iftar Dinner on Tuesday, April 19th at 6pm at Mayo High School. It will be a chance to learn about this important holy season, build connections with our neighbors, and celebrate our diverse, multiracial and multifaith community beyond the cultural divide.

 

I hope that you, your family, and any neighbors or friends that you invite are able to join us! Please register at the link below so that we have a good idea of how much food will need to be prepared:

Please let us know if you have any questions. We hope to see you soon!

 

Ramadan Mubarak,

 

Salah Mohamed and Jack Dudley
