Alhumdulilah, yesterday we hosted our private Imam/Sheikh (Respected Board members, etc.) tours of the Academy.
We invited all masajids within a 45-minute radius of the Academy.
Subahanallah, we had a wonderful turn-out.
Insha’Allah, if your Imam and/or respected leaders of your masjid has not yet visited our facilities, please have them call or email me and I will conduct one for them, insha’Allah.
While touring the facilities 2 weeks ago for the first time, it was literally a dream in the making. Now, 2-weeks later, it’s hard not to let tears fill my eyes as I watch the speed and execution of the contractor’s work.
Even between the 2pm and 6pm tours there were drastic changes implemented, alhumdulilah.
During the tours were discussed the following:
- Our commitment to creating the Academy as a regional community center for all Muslims, in cooperation with all local masajids,
- The ability and range of services we will offer in the day, after-school and evening programs,
- The request of their support in cross-promoting each others programs and services, and to collaborate as often as possible, and
- Most importantly, the need for their spiritual and leadership advice, counsel and honest feedback that they have received and/or anticipate receiving from their community members.
Alhumdulilah, everyone honestly shared issues of concern.
Subhanallah, I was able to put their concerns to rest; and actually left them invigorated and proud of all the possibilities that lie ahead of us.
It’s our time to come together and move forward in faith that only Allah SWT will guide us all to success, insha’Allah.
As always, I am open to answer any questions. Please utilize the comments area below to share any of your concerns, such as our curriculum, programming, staffing, calendar of events, etc.
P.S. The building is approximately 30% completed, and we are right on schedule.
