In the Summer of 1995, a group of concerned Members of the Greater Vancouver Muslim Community, started conducting feasibility study on the establishment of a Dawa Center, to cater for the needs of Muslims. Considering the fact that there was no Islamic Center in New Westminister, Burnaby, North or East Vancouver, this led to a series of discussions and meetings, and the search started for a highly visible and centeraly located place. In October 1995 a suitable place was found in East Vancouver on busy Kingsway, bordering Burnaby, New Westminister and North Vancouver. In July 2014, the new MAC Centre was opened down the street to accommodate the growing community.
