The day began with a **Galentine’s Picnic**, where sisters enjoyed a warm, welcoming atmosphere filled with laughter, shared stories, and quality time together. It was a beautiful opportunity for women in the community to bond, support one another, and celebrate the joy of friendship.   ![_78A0300 tt-5](https://441883323.fs1.hubspotusercontent-ap1.net/hub/441883323/hubfs/_78A0300%20tt-5.jpg?width=1200&length=1200&name=_78A0300%20tt-5.jpg) ![_78A0300 tt-12](https://441883323.fs1.hubspotusercontent-ap1.net/hub/441883323/hubfs/_78A0300%20tt-12.jpg?width=1200&length=1200&name=_78A0300%20tt-12.jpg) ![_78A0300 tt-27](https://441883323.fs1.hubspotusercontent-ap1.net/hub/441883323/hubfs/_78A0300%20tt-27.jpg?width=1200&length=1200&name=_78A0300%20tt-27.jpg) ![_78A0300 tt-34](https://441883323.fs1.hubspotusercontent-ap1.net/hub/441883323/hubfs/_78A0300%20tt-34.jpg?width=1200&length=1200&name=_78A0300%20tt-34.jpg)   Following the picnic, the sisters attended the **MYA Ramadan Ready Event**, hosted by the **[Muslim Youth Association](https://mya.org.au/) (MYA)** at Gallipoli Community Hall. This evening program offered **meaningful reminders and practical guidance** to help prepare spiritually and mentally for the blessed month of Ramadan. The event included **Two enlightening talks** with *Ustadha Sahar Dandan *and *Shaykh Abdul Hadi Idil-Shah,* Ramadan Kahoot with prizes and finished off with dinner. This day perfectly captured the mission of the Gallipoli Sisters: fostering **friendship, personal growth, and spiritual connection**. By combining shared leisure, education, and preparation for Ramadan, the sisters strengthened both their community ties and their readiness for the sacred month ahead. We thank everyone who attended and contributed to the warmth and generosity of the day, and we look forward to hosting more inspiring gatherings in the future.   Want to get involved?
