Today, we're back at the Islamic Center on 16th Street in Greensboro. Since the blog began in 2009, something religious or spiritual has been featured on Sundays on GDP. Most of the posts feature churches, as Christianity is the dominant religion in Greensboro; but in the last year, we've made an effort to explore religious diversity in Greensboro. The path to world peace is paved with getting to know and learning to love thy neighbor. The Islamic Center is a peaceful and welcoming place. The above photo features the courtyard between the mosque and the school, near where people remove their shoes before praying.
If you missed yesterday's open session to visit and learn about Islam at the Islamic Center, go, here, to the website to find out about the April session. You will be served a hummus snack and be offered a free Quran. As they say in Arabic, As-aslamu alaykum or "peace be upon you." Perhaps we should title this photo: Between prayers.
Happy Sunday!
