Alhamdulillah, this past Friday early morning concreate was poured into the pad for the masjid building. If Allah wills, the contractor plans to begin with the erection of the building from next Monday. It is exciting to see the progress. You will see a lot of changes in the construction site in the next few weeks. If you get a chance please visit the site and see your masjid in the making. Here are a few pictures of the on-going construction. Insha'Allah, the community will be praying at the new location soon.

Please keep this project in your duas and donate generously to help with the final phases of the masjid construction. You can pay online at www.wc-ic.org or mail you checks to:

The recent violence against innocent civilians is a call to action for all people of faith to speak with one voice against these senseless acts, and to draw attention to the sanctity of life which every faith tradition emphasizes, including Islam. While the individuals who perpetrated these events may appear to, or in their own perverse way believe that they do this in the name of a religion, their actions do not represent any faith tradition.

Although a prompt rush to judgment is tempting, these violent events threaten not just those they immediately target but make each of us a victim of mistrust and prejudice which sap the strength of our society and our great nation, and we fear, will beget more hatred and the violence which follows.

All people of faith who have affixed their names to this statement condemn the violence … in San Bernardino, California and in Savannah, Georgia; in Colorado Springs, Colorado; in Charleston, South Carolina and Paris, France and elsewhere around the world. We pray that the hearts of those who perpetrate such violence will be changed. We join those who work for peace.

We grieve with the communities which fell victims to this violence and with the families and friends who lost dear ones. When violence takes one of us, we are all wounded. We pray, as one, for those who are injured that they may heal quickly and completely. And we pray for fortitude for all of us, that we may overcome the evil in our midst that threatens the pluralistic nature of our great nation. May God bless us all.
