In September, the Muslim Council of Britain are organising a nationwide Visit My Mosque (VMM) programme. https://vmm.mcb.org.uk/  This is a good opportunity to organise a party from your church to visit a local mosque.

What will people say? Collectivist cultures, like those from which our Muslim neighbours come, prioritize the needs, goals, and harmony of the group over individual desires. Thus, in big decisions the phrase “what will people say?” is very meaningful. This is especially so in making any counter-cultural decisions, like in matters of faith.

How can you put on an event for your Muslim neighbours as a church or Mahabba group? First of all, you need a pool of ‘warm’ contacts.

A Mahabba member shares advice on how Christians can help traumatised refugees and asylum seekers in the UK.

A Mahabba member describes some of her experiences as a Muslim Background Believer in a UK church and writes about the attitude of Jesus all Christians should display.
