Calling all MFC ladies aged 18+!

Our goal for the Sisters’ Circle is Insha'Allah to build bonds between us, sisters in the MFC community, irrespective of our backgrounds, age, or familial status; a program where we can come together on a regular basis to address topics and issues relevant to us as women in this society.

This is a space for ALL women 18+ to relax, enjoy good company, and share our lived experiences as Muslim women. Whether you’re looking for knowledge, friendship, or introspection, we’ve got you covered. We guarantee you will not leave without connecting with other sisters.

Dear moms - please leave the kids home so we can focus on our individual relationship with Allah. The focus of the sessions are for adults and not necessarily appropriate for those younger than 18 years. The presence of young children or youth during these sessions may also cause sisters to hesitate to fully express themselves or engage in the discussions. Jazakhallah khair for your understanding.

The event is FREE, but please RSVP so we can plan accordingly!
