Jumma Mubaraka!

Ya Allah we ask you to unite us with Your guidance.  We ask that You bless us with clarity and strength.  We seek Your protection and mercy.  We ask for certainty and clarity through every moment.  Protect us from those who wish harm make us from among the righteous and surround us with Your righteous servants.

 Indoor-Only Jumma Prayer at LGIC

Starting Friday, November 8th, LGIC will no longer be offering outdoor Jumma prayer for the time being. Moving forward, the prayer hall and the front portion of the room directly behind it will be designated for men, while the back half of that room and the auditorium will be reserved for women. We appreciate everyones understanding and cooperation with this transition.

 LGIC Parking

Please make sure to park your cars in the LGIC parking lot and avoid parking on the streets.  Alhamdulilah we have ample parking at LGIC and we encourage the community to please make sure to utilize the parking spaces on site before any street parking.

 Friendly Neighborhood Reminder

Please be courteous as you drive through the neighborhood. Avoid speeding, and keep noise levels down while driving or walking through the neighborhood.
