May 2023 Newsletter

Dear community members and friends,

As we approach the warmer season, we hope that our May Newsletter finds our community members well and in good health. We certainly have enjoyed seeing everyone’s smiling faces, especially those of
our youth and younger generations.

We in the ZAMC are looking forward to seeing even more smiling faces in the coming months through our numerous exciting events, many designed to help all our community members (across generations) partake and enjoy.

That being said, we in the ZAMC cannot stress enough our encouragement for the youth of our community to participate in ZAMC activities and engage with the ZAMC at all levels. It is you all who are the future of our community and we need your support, ideas, and drive to help keep our proud Dar-e-Mehr alive and our community prosperous and together.

Finally, we would like to remind everyone that as August 2023 will be here before we know it, we are continually in need of help for our upcoming Parliament of World Religions event, which will take place in August. More details on how you can help make this event a success can be found in this issue of our Newsletter.

Please reach out to zamc@zamc.org if you are interested in joining an initiative!

Hamāzor Hamā Ashō-bēd! May we all be united in strength and righteousness!
Atha Jamyad Yatha Afrinami! May we achieve what we have prayed for.

~ZAMC Board of Directors

January 2023 Newsletter

Dear community members and friends,

Happy New Year to our members and your families!

As the new year has officially begun, we in the ZAC hope every one of you had a blessed holiday season filled with joy, happiness, and rest.

A few reminders to our community that we wanted to highlight:

  • Dues Reminder: Please remember to pay your 2023 Membership Dues!
  • Donations: We are always in great need of donations toward our Daily Mobed Services, and also for supplies like sukhad and tealight candles to keep our prayers and ceremony operations running smoothly.
  • ZELDA: Also a reminder about our new initiative, ZELDA, focused on providing educational and leadership development opportunities for our youth.
  • Volunteers: As we have mentioned in previous newsletters, we are continually in need of other
    community members to step up and assist in the various committees and activities (some of which are listed in the Board Requests & Key Contacts section below).

Special thanks and gratitude to Dinaz and Ken Weber for donating over $15,000 towards ZAC’s new outdoor sign!

Please reach out to zamc@zamc.org if you are interested in joining an initiative!

November 2022 Newsletter

Dear community members and friends,

Happy Fall Season to our community! Hope you have been enjoying back-to-school and the fall season in general.

As you can see in this newsletter, we are continuing to bring back many of the exciting ZAC events for our families and friends. Among these events are our upcoming Fundraiser / Family Fun Bonanza to help benefit the multi-purpose kids & adults play and classroom area. We encourage our community members to come if you can, and if not, to donate towards this worthy cause to help maintain the ZAC facilities and even update it to cater to our younger generations.

As the holiday season is just around the corner, we are also excited to be in the midst of planning our ZAC Holiday Party which will take place in December.

On the religious front, we are always in great need of donations toward our prayer services, and also for supplies like sukhad and tealight candles to keep our prayers and ceremony operations running smoothly.

We are also excited to announce a new initiative, ZELDA, focused on providing educational and leadership development opportunities for our youth.

As we had mentioned in our previous newsletter, we are continually in need of other community members to step up and assist in the various committees and activities (some of which are listed in the Board Requests & Key Contacts section below).

Please reach out to zamc@zamc.org if you are interested in joining an initiative!

Hamāzor Hamā Ashō-bēd! May we all be united in strength and righteousness!

Atha Jamyad Yatha Afrinami! May we achieve what we have prayed for.
