Muslim Women’s Association Coffee Morning Last week, Sally & Pauline attended a coffee morning held by the Ahmadiyya Muslim Women's Association, Bradford South. It was lovely to meet the ladies and have a chat about faith and life. Despite our differences, we also found we are very similar in faith and belief. We look forward to the next one in July and hope some more ladies may want to join us. |
