SUMMARY:World Food Day: Prophetic voice and the peoples of the land
DESCRIPTION:Listening for God’s prophetic voice amongst the people of the land\nJoin us for World Food Day\, a more important focus than ever as armed conflict causes great hunger around the world. As our local harvests from land and water are gathered in\, come out and learn what we can do for neighbours in need. \nRick Block and Miriam Harder\, colleagues at the Canadian Foodgrains Bank\, will share historical and current contexts from Canada and the Palestinian Territories exploring how land\, identity\, and conflict can create tragic circumstances- but also springs of hope\, resilience\, and unity. \nThis will be a participatory event and will include table group discussions for in-person and online participants\, as well as various calls to action and prayer. Join us in person or online! Hosted by Mennonite Church Canada SK\, and Living Skies Regional Council. Canadian Foodgrains Bank unites Mennonite and United traditions and many others in its work across the Prairies and around the world. \nThe presentation will be broadcast on Grosvenor Park UC’s YouTube channel: click here for the link. A Zoom link for the discussion will be shared at the start of the event. Help invite others! https://tinyurl.com/yxspxf4n \n

SUMMARY:The Stones Cry Out film discussion online
DESCRIPTION:This 30 minute documentary from 2013 lifts up the voices of Palestinian Christians who are often left out of coverage of the military occupation of Palestine. Although they are a small minority\, Palestinian Christians have played a critical role in the territory’s history and\, as Palestine is the birthplace of Christianity\, this community has a global significance for Christians. \nThe film covers Palestinian Christians’ experiences from 1948 to the modern era\, including the effects of the Israeli military occupation on Bethlehem. \nYou can view online for free here. \nTo have your own discussion group on this timely topic and as follow-up to the film\, see the document Stones Cry Out Discussion. You can also join us for a Region-wide conversation Wednesday November 6. Zoom link: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/89100161083 \nOrganized by the Just Peace Palestine Israel working group of Living Skies\, and Mennonite Church SK.

SUMMARY:Learning gathering on unmarked burials
DESCRIPTION:Our Sacred Responsibilities: learning from the Unmarked Burials report and challenging settler denial. \nAll people of all backgrounds welcome to this day-long learning gathering\, open to Indigenous and non-Indigenous people. We will focus somewhat on the United Church’s responsibilities\, but all backgrounds are welcome as a full part of the day\, and we will not focus only on the United Church. \nTogether we will learn about the recent report on unmarked burials; explore what reparations means; learn about the problem of settler denialism; and practice together how to challenge it. Speakers and knowledge keepers will help us\, and all who come are full participants in helping each other and our communities create a good path forward. \nCommunity\, prayer\, ceremony\, and cultural supports will be part of our day. A separate support space is also available to First Nations\, Métis and Inuit\, respecting that this is a hard topic. \nPractical details\nPlease click here to register. Registration is free but required\, so we can plan for meals.  \nThe full reports from the Office of the Special Interlocutor on Unmarked Burials are available here. (They’re long\, which is one of the reasons we’re offering this learning space.) \n Click here for a poster to share with your community . You can also use the image at the top of this page. \nResource people: Dr Raven Sinclair;  Sara Stratton\, Reconciliation and Justice Animator at the General Council of the United Church; elders TBC. \nPlan for our day: 9:30 gathering and coffee; program begins at 10:00AM; we will finish no later than 4:00PM. Our day will include (among other things): prayer and ceremony; an overview of key parts of the report on unmarked burials; reflection from a survivor; what do we and the report mean by “reparations”; what is settler denial\, and how can we challenge it? \nOur space: The building is fully accessible\, and we will be using mics to assist those with hearing needs. Smudging and medicines will be part of our day. There is some parking on site\, and transit a block away. Lunch and snacks included. \nTravel costs for First Nations\, Métis\, and Inuk participants will be covered. \nOrganized by Indigenous Ministries and Justice of the United Church of Canada\, and by Living Skies Regional Council\, UCC. Thank you to Station 20 West for hosting.
