2nd Annual Peace Walk
To mark what would have been Selam’s 23rd birthday, we welcome everyone to join us for a walk among the sequoia trees. The walk will provide us all a time to think, reflect, and commune with one another.
This year, we are encouraging not just those in the Bay, but folks everywhere to take their own peace walk. It doesn’t have to be in the woods or even a long walk, just a small way to remember her on this day and make a special dua (prayer) for her as you walk.
Fasting for Peace
As we reflect on the one year mark since Selam’s passing, we turn to God to get us through. With fasting comes a beautiful opportunity to supplicate, or make dua. We’re told that the supplications of a fasting person will never be rejected. We invite you to join us in this day of collective fasting, to connect to our Creator, and keep Selam in our dua so that she will feel the love.
Ramadan Reflection
An afternoon of reflection on the realities of facing Ramadan without loved ones we’ve lost and how we can benefit them in the last 10 days and nights of this blessed month. This event is in honor of Selam Said.
Nature Walk
In remembrance of what would have been Selam's 22nd birthday, we are offering this opportunity to come together and connect in nature. We will be going on on a walk through redwoods starting with a one-mile loop. Afterward, there will be an option to sit and reflect.
