Dear / Hello / Hi …. ,

I hope my email finds you well! As you may know, I am observing the holy month of Ramadan, where I fast from the break of dawn to sunset. This year, my mosque, the Masumeen Islamic Centre (7580 Kennedy Rd. S, Brampton), will host an interfaith iftar (breaking of the fast meal) where we invite our friends and neighbours to join us. Please come on Sunday, March 26, 2023, at 7:30pm and truly experience the essence of Ramadan with me and my community.

We will have a brief gathering with all our guests to learn about our community and faith, followed by prayers and the iftar meal. Ramadan is an opportunity to connect with others and recognize our shared values, spread generosity, kindness and show empathy and it would be an honour to have you there.

I hope you can make it!
