AUSTIN MUSLIM MEETUP GROUP
Are you a Muslim in their 20s and 30s living in Austin that would like to meet other Muslims? If so, you have found the right place! We would like to welcome everyone to the group. No matter our level of spirituality, as Muslims we all share certain mores, customs/traditions, thoughts, etc, a common core so to speak. Though we're all well integrated and part of the larger society here, sometimes we need to feel a sense of community and be around like-minded folks. We hope this group helps in that sense. This group as an open, respectful, and non-judgmental place for Muslims of all backgrounds and non-Muslims alike.
