It has been serving the BC Community for almost 22 years. The Miracle is a household newspaper of the local Muslim community and is popular in other local & ethnic communities as well. Its availability on the Website: www. miraclenews.com, Facebook (the Miracle Newspaper), Twitter, (https:// twitter.com/Miraclenews1), and at two other digital printing service providers, “Press Reader” at https://www.pressreader.com/canada/the-miracle/latest and “Magzter “ at https://www.magzter. com/CA/Miracle-Media-Group-Inc in all over the world. We are proud that Alhamdulillah’s the Miracle is the only one in the BC Muslim Print Media market which is non-stop a bi-weekly publication during the Pandemic 2019-2022 and after the Covid crisis till this day. Like other businesses, last year has hurt Miracle deeply as our advertisers are struggling but we aim to carry on with our limited resources and stay with our readers, writers, and advertisers during this difficult time. Feel free to comment on this issue about Miracle’s Historical 22 years journey, as your concerns and suggestions are highly appreciated for improving our quality in the future. In the end, I will not be honest if I do not appreciate the efforts of my Miracle’s family are Ms. Khadija, Ms.
