The teapot travels.
As we all enjoy our weekend at DIBC 2024, we all need a cup of tea during the day.
As the storm clouds gather…
This is not any ordinary teapot!
It is a symbol of friendship, care, and most importantly of Brotherhood.
Thank you Scouter Dan. For Introducing me to these wonderful Guides and for being a tool in building this relationship.
A few weeks ago, our group, 1st Muslim Scouts of Hamilton was starting and we were looking for resources/equipment etc.
Sc. Dan Tapley reached out and connected me with the Linda Jegeris & Ina Legzdins
Not only did we receive items like tents etc, but also got these Tea/ Coffee Pots. They are so full of character. They show many years of great camp memories wrapped in them… Now is our group’s chance to build more memories around them.
These are being tested at 1st Al Falah Center Scouts, Oakville this weekend at no other than DIBC and many more fun activities in the future for 1st MSH.
1st AFC Oakville is almost 15 years old. 1st Muslim Scouts of Hamilton are not even a year old yet. But this bond of friendship between fellow Scouts & Guides is lifelong !
A big thanks to Scouter Dan!
A big thanks to guide number one
A big thanks to guide number two.
And
A big thanks to the Scouting brotherhood
My thoughts, my heart, my thanks to you.

All Section Fall camp 2018. With Friends from 1st MAC Scouts.
Al-Falah Islamic Centre is the meeting place for the first Muslim Scout group in western GTA. Since October 2009, 1st AFC Scout Group has been meeting every Tuesday evening to learn outdoor, leadership and team building skills in a fun, hands-on manner.
The group is now in its 10th year and has three youth sections: Venturer Scouts (age 15-17), Scouts (age 11-14), and Cub Scouts (age 8-10).
Scouting and Muslim Youth Scouting is an international youth movement that started in 1907, and today comprises more than 28 million youth and adults in 160 countries and territories worldwide, including many Muslim-majority countries.
In Canada alone, more than 100,000 members, including volunteers and youth participate in Scouting Programs. Scouts Canada is the nation’s premier youth-serving organization.
What programs can we offer Muslim youth?
How should we prepare our youth to become contributing members of society?
Which program does not sideline the importance of religion and spirituality in our daily lives?
These were some of the questions addressed by the pioneers of this initiative at the Al-Falah Centre. Scouting offers successful, well designed programs to engage our youth. In fact, Scouting’s three main principles are very familiar to any Muslim: “duty to God, duty to others and duty to self.” It’s mission is to “contribute to the education of young people... to help build a better world where people are self-fulfilled as individuals, and play a constructive role in society.”
Scouting helps achieve these goals by building a wide range of skills in the youth in a fun and challenging environment. Some of the activities and skills taught include camping, hiking, tree planting, orienteering, community work, first aid skills, outdoor cooking, survival skills, skating, tobogganing, praying, shelter building, team-building, discipline, learning respect and tolerance, disability awareness, building friendships, community work and much more.
