Welcome to Islam! In 2006 as a new Muslim I was very fortunate to have been taken in by a group of sisters who taught me and celebrated Eid with me. I want to pass that gift on to other new Muslimas. You don't need to learn Islam all by yourself and we are here to support you as you grow, learn Islam and encounter trials and hardships as well as celebrating the good times. This group is for New Muslims (converts/reverts) but all are always welcome. At least once a month we will all gather to c …

In response to this divine guidance, each week we will take a smart approach to exercise to move the body efficiently. We will focus on form, function, balance, stabilization, core conditioning, and burning calories. Nationally recognized Movement Therapist Delma Oliveras will lead you through exercise circuits and athletic d …

… We host: The Touchpoints Relationship Forum: Get-togethers for men and women to discuss how to build stronger relationships. Queens and Long Island Urban Social Networking events for entreprenuers and professionals of color.
I decided to start this group because I felt that many of us are in our own little circles of our own household members, and while we are all doing the same thing; raising a Muslim family, we are not aware of each others' struggles or life changing events.

While we all need help, we sometimes are alone when we need it most. This group is dedicated to the supp …
