About Ellen
Ellen
I’ve believed in God for as long as I can remember.
I was baptized, raised and confirmed in the Lutheran church.
When I was twenty-one I became what you might call a “born-again” Christian.
I was a Methodist minister’s wife for ten years.
I studied the Bible, taught adult Bible classes and became a lay preacher.
And in 2009, on the last day of Ramadan, I said my Shahada and became a Muslim.
I started I, Muslimah to help me, and maybe others, to grow in the faith.
Welcome!

Asalamu aliakum, Ellen,
You officially have the MOST interesting ‘about’ that I have read in a long time. Do you mind if I ask how it was that you started to read about Islam and how your husband reacted?
If it’s none of my business, I understand!
Hi Ellen!
Asalaamoalaikum wa’ Rahmatullah wa’Barakatohu!

Assalamu alaikom,
I responded to one of your posts about Converts feeling lost when coming into Islam, but I just wanted you to know that Sunnahfollowers.net teaches daily classes everyday for free. Sis Laila Nasheeba is our teacher. She’s really great. I wish we can see you isnahALLAH. I’m a convert too, alhumdulilah…I hope all is well with you sis.
Here’s our facebook page:
