The Canton community is truly unique, and even on a national level it acts as
a pioneer in youth engagement. Youth here hold relief dinners, volunteer in
and around the masjid, and participate in programs that serve to draw in their
brothers and sisters. Whats special is it sees young people invested in seeing
their brotherhood and sisterhood grow. Mentees become mentors, mentors
become supporters and donors, and the community progresses. Our blessing has
been getting those processes running, supporting the young people at this
masjid, and developing innovative and engaging programming. Having a space
with which to foster these relationships and develop these programs has been so
important to our work.
Being involved with the Canton community has given us an outlet to grow
spiritually and has given us the platform needed to push ourselves and expand
our own abilities and knowledge. Everything learned from our time and
experience at MCWS we will continue using to benefit the Muslim
community and we are thankful for every person we have crossed paths with
because of MCWS.

They come in the form of weekly Friday

QIYAMS
Having been a part of the MCWS community for almost 25 years, I have been
able to witness such a blessed and exponential growth in so many aspects of it,
Alhamdulillah. One of these is our youth community that has grown into a
vibrant and purposeful group of young individuals, Masha'Allah. I am truly
honored to work with such committed
brothers and sisters who are driven to
cultivate God-loving, motivated and
purpose-driven youth. Whether it's
our Youth Directors, mentors, or one
of the dozens of volunteers, they all
work tirelessly to help envision and
accomplish our goals and execute our
programs and events. All these youth
programs that you see happening
before you (and
those you don't see) are a product of countless hours
of brainstorming, preparation and
execution. The Youth Lounge has played a vital role
in all of these projects. It serves as a hub for
programs, meetings, discussions, and just plain
lounging :) Our MCWS Youth know that although
they are welcome at our masjid, they are always
welcome at the Youth Lounge. Creating a clean and
comfortable space that is warm, inviting and safe that
caters to their needs is one of our goals that would not
be possible without the Permission and Blessings of
Allah, the Almighty, and of course YOUR support!
Please keep our youth workers, volunteers, and members in your Du'as this Ramadan, and always.

What's it like to be a part of the MCWS community? To
me it's just that, actually being part of the community. In
this community I can actually contribute with my actions
and my thoughts and I can help. In other communities
you can feel like a bystander waiting for things to happen,
while in this community everyone has the ability to be an
integral member. Alhamdullilah for the blessings we have
in this community and may Allah bless this community
even more, ameen.
