*MCC adheres to the traditional principle that Islamic lunar months begin and end based on confirmed, verified naked-eye sightings of the new crescent moon globally. See here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohpzeUf9w9c

Please join us for the Eid Carnival at MCC on Saturday, April 20 (updated date): https://mcceastbay.org/carnival-event

Please remember that the congregational salat is prayed first for Eid (in contrast to the weekly Jumu’ah prayer), and then worshipers listen to the Eid sermon. Please stay seated after the prayer.
