America is a country with many, many religions. Islam is growing very fast in America, Alhamdulillah. But for now, there may not be as many Muslims where you live as there are Christians, Jews, or others. We want to make sure that the iman (faith) in our hearts and souls stays strong and helps us to live as Allah has told us to.
It is very important to practice our iman throughout our whole lives, and start now as kids. When you live in a country where there aren't many Muslims, you have to try a little harder to practice that iman. Do you have any Muslim friends? They'll probably be the best friends you will have. Stick with them, and you'll feel even more proud to be a Muslim!
Even more important in helping you feel like a part of Islam, is your FAMILY. If you ever feel confused about your iman, go to your mother or father or another grown-up relative, and Inshallah they will straighten things out for you. Also, when you're with your family, you feel like you really belong to a group who has the same ideas about your iman as you do.
