The Wednesday Women’s Bible Study did a two-week study of Islam and wanted to get the perspective of the women from the West End Islamic Center. We invited them to join us on Wednesday morning. They were very gracious in answering our many questions and furthering our understanding. For some of us, it meant challenging some of our preconceived notions. During the past few months, the Muslim women have made an extraordinary effort to reach out to us in community and friendship. It’s safe to say that we were all enriched by the experience and hope to develop some genuine friendships. Yes, the Holy Spirit was right with us in the room. There was also much laughter, too.
