It was announced Sunday that the Edmonton Stake Center will be off limits from 10 PM to 1 AM for 4 weeks while they celebrate and break a fast.There are to be no activities or members in the building, 7 days a week for about 3 to 4 weeks as the Muslims celebrate this holy event. They are going to be using the Relief Society room.
Now for the fine print. There is some sort of a religious counsel set up in Edmonton. A small group of Muslims needed a room to celebrate this Holy Event. They have no mosque. No other Churches offered so the Stake President offered ours. He got the blessings from area Church leaders.
The letter from the SP indicates these people are our brothers and sisters and we need to help them out. It will help to create positive relationships between the Church and them. They will use the meeting to pray and break their fast everyday for this religious event.
Members were told in the letter that was read, to leave the building by 10 pm. Leave the building clean and tidy. And to be friendly.
