Ramadan Flyers and Links included -
We are excited to celebrate the month of Ramadan with the community! Please join us tomorrow night, February 28th at Maghrib (around 6pm), for Ramadan Moon Sighting.
The month of Ramadan will provide an opportunity to break your fast with family and friends at the Masjid. It is a valued tradition at Evergreen Islamic Center to offer this service to the community. Iftar at the Masjid is an opportunity to meet the new members of the community, meet old friends and make new ones! It is truly a spiritual and a festive atmosphere for the entire community to benefit and enjoy. During the month, the Youth Committee plans to organize various youth-oriented programs, including youth iftar, with the aim of encouraging young people to actively participate in community activities and interact with their peers.
Over the years, we have seen a steady rise in the attendance for daily and community iftar. Hosting this program is not possible without the support of the community, as it includes food, supplies, security, cleaning, and babysitting services. This is entirely a community-sponsored event. Please support it with your Iftar Sponsorship

Be a Good Neighbor:
Islam has great respect for the mutual rights and duties of neighbors. It is critical that we remain mindful of our neighbors at all times and especially during Ramadan.
“And be good to the neighbor who is your relative and to the neighbor who is not a relative . . .” (Qur’an, 4:36)
Throughout Ramadan we see an increase level of activity at the Masjid. During the long days of spring, Taraweeh prayers will end late. We want to ensure that we are not disturbing our neighbors as we exit the facility. Remember noise tends to carry farther distance when the surroundings are quiet.
Safety:
Safety is always at the forefront for all the events and our top priority. This is a construction site; we want all our patrons to be aware of their surroundings at all times.
Parking:
During Ramadan we see an increase level of activity at the Masjid. Islam has great respect for the mutual rights and duties of neighbors. It is critical that we remain mindful of our neighbors at all times and especially during Ramadan.
To ensure that parking and traffic concerns remain under control, here are specific steps that we are implementing:
Due to construction we have limited parking space inside the compound
Street parking
Interested in Volunteering:
EIC has a dedicated team of volunteers to support various activities.
JazakAllahu Khayran and Ramadan Mubarak!
