Eid greetings to the Muslim community
8-05-2014
To Members and Supporters of the Canadian Arab Forum of BC
I would like to extend warm Eid greetings to the Muslim community of British Columbia, as you complete the holy month of Ramadan.
As this solemn period of fasting and penitence concludes, I commend the community groups that preserve and honor their cultural heritage. It is important to remember your traditions and embrace Canadian ideals. This special annual spiritual time for Muslims in British Columbia brings the community together, strengthens your commitment to follow in the teachings of Islam, reinforces your devotion to your faith, and brings many individuals and families together to enjoy traditional foods and camaraderie.
Eid Mubarak,
Sue Hammell
