Thank you mabsoota very informative!
so you guys fast until the 31st right ?
in Islam God said that women who are going through their menstruation cycle are exempted from fasting, is it the same in christianity ?
lastly
My friend shared this fr…
some would disagree that childbearing is punishment for women.Why would God punish a woman that has absolutely nothing to do with Adam and Eve's actions.

There are many deacons who are married.

Sometime I'd like to read your understandings of faithful family life, beliefs and relationships. I'm especially interested in how the young Muslim immigrant families, and your faith community in general are handling the temptations and divisions…

They are: these are called Salafists! And apparently, you are scared of them from coming into power. Why? What scares you about them? For me, they are not just muslims, but they are good muslims, obeying and living according to every letter in th…
