Event Description

Talk of reconciliation between Canada and Indigenous Peoples is everywhere. Do you ever wonder what place the church has in this conversation? Do you wonder what it will take to heal the hurts? How are you navigating the information we are being taught about Indigenous Peoples in Canada? This November we would invite you to join us in exploring these and other questions from a Gospel perspective, as we look to respond as Jesus would. This is a great opportunity for all churches in Vernon to come together to learn and grow in understanding. Please consider coming with an attitude of compassion and curiosity.
