FAYM

Ever wonder why it is that Ramadan comes and goes so quickly? The more
important question is how do we make the most of this very blessed time that
seems to fly by faster and faster with each year.

Well this year the FAYM Sisters held a one-day seminar themed "Ready, Set...Ramadan!" on Saturday July 31st. The purpose of the seminar was to provide sisters with all the necessary information and tools they would need to make the most of Ramadan 2010.

The seminar covered topics such as the Virtues of Ramadan, the Fiqh of Fasting and the Last 10 Days. There were also a series of short talks on How to Prepare for Ramadan, How to Set Goals for Ramadan, the Ramadan Diet, Ramadan in America and Spirituality Boosters.

The sisters were also given the opportunity to speak their mind and give their own personal advices during a group discussion. The day ended with a craft project where the sisters designed their own bookmarks that were to be used as an inspiration
to recite Quran during Ramadan.

Everyone left feeling inspired and better prepared for the blessed month that was about to begin. And although we can't slow down the passing of Ramadan we can surely use what we've learned at this seminar to make the most of it.
