I am truly honored and humbled to receive a Journalism Excellence Award from the Pakistan American Press Association (PAPA) in recognition of my work as a journalist and digital media professional.

Receiving this award from Ambassador Rizwan Saeed Sheikh made the moment even more special and meaningful. His recognition and words of encouragement are deeply appreciated. 🙏🏻

A small but committed group of Pakistani-Americans gathered at Sugar Land Town Square for a peaceful community event centered on prayers for Pakistan, national unity, and hope for the country’s future.

The gathering marked three years since the imprisonment of former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan. Participants offered prayers for peace, justice, stability, and prosperity in Pakistan while reflecting on the nation’s ongoing political challenges.

Although attendance was modest, organizers and participants said the significance of the event was measured not by the size of the crowd but by the sincerity of those who came together in support of their homeland.

Community members emphasized that overseas Pakistanis, regardless of political differences, remain deeply connected to Pakistan and share a common desire to see the country progress with peace, economic stability, strong democratic institutions, and respect for the Constitution and the rule of law.

Sajjad Burki encouraged unity within the Pakistani diaspora, calling on people to put Pakistan’s future above political divisions and to continue supporting the nation through constructive dialogue, civic engagement, and prayers.

The peaceful gathering concluded with collective prayers for Pakistan’s security, development, and prosperity, as well as for wisdom among the country’s leaders and institutions to work toward a stronger and more united nation.

For many in attendance, the evening served as a reminder that patriotism is not only expressed through large crowds, but also through the unwavering commitment of individuals who continue to hope and pray for a peaceful, stable, and prosperous Pakistan.

I had the pleasure of visiting the MIC Crochet Guild, where young girls are learning far more than crochet—they’re building confidence, creativity, patience, and lifelong skills in a completely tech-free environment.

Watching these talented girls proudly display their handmade creations was truly inspiring. In such a short time, they have learned beautiful crochet techniques and were excited to share their work and experiences. Their smiles said it all!

A special appreciation to Nazek Salahudeen, the visionary behind this wonderful initiative. Drawing from decades of experience in social work, education, and community development, she has created a program that encourages young girls to step away from screens and discover the joy of creating with their own hands.

Thank you to Sister Arshia Khan and Sister Sabah Shaudhry for their dedication and support in making these classes a success.

Programs like this don’t just teach a craft—they inspire the next generation to become creative, confident, and productive members of the community.

May Allah bless everyone involved and continue to make this initiative a source of benefit for our youth. Ameen. 🤲💖
