Reconciliation Seminar
Friday, August 6 --- Join Zoom Meeting Meeting ID: 867 1353 4083 --- The discovery of the remains of 215 children at the Kamloops residential school has raised further awareness of the mistreatment of Canada’s indigenous people. It is important to not only acknowledge this or feel empathy for those who have suffered, but to begin to actively seek and participate in reconciliation. Dr. Jennifer Singh highlighted this in her June 25th article in Christianity today entitled: "The Church Has Ignored the Grief of First Nation Peoples Too Long". Dr. Singh will share her experience in listening, and point us to ways we can respond. Join us as a church as we pay attention to these important truths. For more infomation visit:
