Prince George Islamic Centre host open house
PRINCE GEORGE— The Prince George Islamic Centre hosted an Open House on Saturday, welcoming the community to teach more about the Islamic religion.
This event was an opportunity to help residents of Prince George better understand Islam and it’s community in the city.
“It’s important because there’s a lot of perceptions of Islam that are out in the community that aren’t represented by who we really are,” said Nadia Mansour who has been practicing Islam at the Centre since it opened in 2011. “When we open up our doors to the community and we have people come in, we get to invite people to our faith and show them what we we’re really about.”
