A time of song, prayer and silent reflection in the manner of the Taizé Community.
Find the labyrinth at the back of the church, with access off Echo Drive or through the Immaculate parking lot. No reservations or permission required – you are simply welcome anytime.
If you would like a few gentle suggestions for how to walk the labyrinth, you can find them here.
If you would like a little more information about the history of labyrinth walking, you can find that here.
Bring your own lawn chair and join in this happy celebration!
All My Relations-Ascension Circle invites you to continue our listening and learning about the history of Shingwauk Indian Residential School and to receive an update about the unmarked burials sites on the grounds of the former school. We will be joined by Irene Barbeau, President the Children of Shingwauk Alumni Association.
We will have an opportunity to make a gesture of reconciliation through art on small wooden tiles, originally part of the Project of Heart, which will be added to our prayer screen. [tiles made at a previous workshop pictured above]
For those who can join, we plan to share a meal together at the end of the workshop. For more information and/or to register contact the All My Relations-Ascension Circle co-chairs by email at allmyrelations@churchoftheascension.ca.
All are welcome to this special outdoor communion service, designed particularly with our youngest members in mind. We will pray, sing, hear God’s story, share communion, and get our hands a little dirty in the garden!
We will move indoors only in the event of a downpour so come prepared for the weather.
Masks are required indoors.
