City of Kingston
Council Meeting
Addendum

That Kingston City Council extends its heartfelt congratulations to all Kingstonians celebrating Ramadan this year. As the holiest month in the Islamic calendar, Ramadan is a time for reflection and spiritual growth. During this sacred month, Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset, engage in prayer, and strive for a closer connection with their faith. This year, Ramadan is predicted to begin on March 1 and conclude on March 30 with Eid celebrations. Signified through devotion, unity, and generosity, this is a sacred time for individuals and families to come together. To all celebrating, we wish you a joyous Ramadan, one that is filled with faith, love, and enlightenment.
