Eid al-Adha
Sunday, August 11 - 11:15 a.m.
The Community Building Collaborative is sponsoring an opportunity to learn about Eid al-Adha. Eid al-Adha, also called the "Festival of the Sacrifice," is the second of two Islamic holidays celebrated worldwide each year; it is considered the holier of the two. It honors the willingness of Ibrahim to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to God's command. Make plans now to join us after worship in Friendship Hall, Sunday, August 11 at 11:15 a.m. for a traditional luncheon and an explanation of the holiday by Muslim activist Yusef Miller. Please bring in some dry goods (beans, canned goods, rice, pasta, etc.) to feed those in need at Uptown Community Service Center.
