About Sisters:
Mission Statement "As Sisters in Islam, we dedicate ourselves to
service to God and society by providing an English language information
and support center for women and anyone else in the larger community who
wishes to learn more about Islam."
Established in 1997, SISTERS functions as a support group for
expatriate women of other religions considering marrying, or who have
married Moslems, and would like to know more about Islam. In our weekly
fellowship meetings we read the Quran, and the various interpretations
of it, to discuss how this can be applied to modern life as well as
learn more about the tenets and rituals of Islam. These sessions are
informal, attended only by women, and are geared towards seeking
spiritual development.
Aside from this, SISTERS holds monthly open-forum discussions as well
as short courses on Islam, twice a year. For more information please
