Day 1 – CTV London: Ramadan to begin for Muslim community

Day 1 - Live 6 pm news broadcast by CTV London on start of Ramadan in front of London Muslim Mosque Tuesday July 09 2013

One of the first things I did after arriving at the London Muslim Mosque and praying my Dhuhr Prayers on time in congregation, was learning CTV London was coming to record a segment for their 6 p.m. news broadcast.

I happened to spot them in the parking lot as they arrived and found myself being a one person welcoming committee. I lead them to the office and introduced them to who they had come to interview.

And just like that, with this tiny bit of volunteering I instantly jumped from being a visitor to the London Muslim Mosque Community to becoming a part of it.

Here are a few photos I snapped while they were filming the segment.
