Ramadan Mubarak and Shavuot Sameach
Ramadan mubarak and Shavuot sameach from CAJM!
Ramadan is a month of forgiveness and mercy which our Muslim brothers
and sisters use to combat divisive hate. We hope that these coinciding
holidays are used as opportunities to build bridges and strengthen
relationships between different faith communities.
