Learning towards Reconciliation

tiles created as part of a parish learning project about residential schools, including the Shingwauk Residential School

Join All My Relations-Ascension for this special Story at the Rectory series to learn about the roots and consequences of the Doctrine of Discovery – and how a more just and more hopeful future is possible.

Thursday, June 17, 7:30-9:00pm – “Sharing, Healing, and Learning about the Shingwauk Residential School” with guest speakers, Jay Jones, president of Children of Shingwauk Alumni Association and Krista McCraken, Interim Director, Shingwauk Residential Schools Centre. Jay and Krista will discuss the consequences of the doctrine of discovery for the dream of Chief Shingwauk and the work now underway to finally fulfill his vision of “Sharing, Healing, and Learning.” They will also join us on June 20, for the National Indigenous Day of Prayer.

Registration for June 17 on Zoom here.
