On behalf of the congregation
and Events Committee of East Anglian Bangladeshi Islamic Centre, I would like
to invite you to an Open Mosque Day, to be held on 5th February 2017
at East Anglian Bangladeshi Islamic Centre.
Our mosque is taking part in
the national #VisitMyMosque initiative organised by Muslim Council of
Britain (MCB).
In the spirit of friendship and conversation, we hope to give members of the local
community an engaging insight into the life of the mosque and to promote
greater understanding of Islam. We anticipate welcoming local people from all
walks of life to visit the mosque and meet with its diverse Muslim
congregations.
The Mosque has a daily
congregation of multi-cultural people and on Friday prayers, it attracts more
than 300 worshippers. Its open and friendly approach draws visitors from
schools and the public throughout the year. The open attitude of the mosque and
its people make a major contribution in fostering interfaith and intercultural
understanding within the local community. We very much hope that members of
your Organisation will be able to attend. If you would be happy to pass on some
invitations to your congregation and to display a poster in your reception
area. I can send you these materials, or if at all possible perhaps I could
attend a meeting within the next few days and invite the congregation in
person? If that would be possible I will bring some written invitations
and posters for your members’ future reference.
We would be honoured to have
your presence on the day between 10AM to 3PM. In particular, if you are able to
arrive by 1PM we would like to invite you to observe the midday prayer.
Please contact me by telephone
or email to confirm your attendance or for further information. If you are able
to attend, please also let me know of any dietary requirements as well.
Yours sincerely,
Sirajul Islam
General Secretary
East Anglian Bangladeshi Islamic Centre
