Every Sunday from 4:00PM to 5:30PM, community members gather outside City Hall at 216 Ontario Street to offer dawah to the wider Kingston community. Alhamdulilah, So far, many dedicated volunteers have contributed their time and effort to share knowledge and build connections with the wider community.
To grow this important work and expand dawah efforts throughout Kingston, more volunteers are needed. Trainings and ongoing support are provided to help you feel confident and prepared.
Together, we can strengthen our community outreach and invite more community members into the fold of Islam, inshaAllah.
