SUMMARY:Taste of Palestine 1: cooking\, living\, eating under blockade
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy learning (virtual) hands on about Palestinian traditional food\, and the realities of living and eating under military occupation or blockade. Haneen AbdAlnabi will be our first host on October 12 at 10:30AM. She is a teacher and translator living under blockade in Gaza\, and\, we hope\, will come to us live from Gaza. \nPlease register here to get the Zoom link\, which will be sent automatically. Remember to check your email spam folder! \nWhy this event? Fall is harvest time throughout the Northern hemisphere\, and in Palestine and Israel\, the October olive harvest is a deeply important time for community\, culture\, and traditional food for the coming year. But it’s also a time where violence directed at Palestinian farmers spikes to new levels\, as radical Jewish settlers target olive trees and harvesters. The World Council of Churches offers extensive videos and photos in a special project launched last year\, and you can use these freely in your community of faith. \nNew for this year\, and accompanying our Taste events: The Palestine Service for Peace was created by the Saskatchewan and Ontario Taste of Palestine Group\, and compiled and edited by Ineke Medcalf. It’s available on YouTube- use freely in your worship services.

SUMMARY:What Have We Done? Regional service of lament
DESCRIPTION:To be a settler or newcomer Christian in Canada and a member of the United Church is to inherit a legacy that holds the heartbreaking stories of residential schools. Along with doing justice work\, we are called to feel this legacy: to feel the grief\, anguish\, and anger. These are hard feelings that are best borne in community with the Body of Christ. This worship is open to everyone\, with a focus on joining with other grieving settler and newcomer Christians on Sunday\, June 20\, at 7:00pm to lament together. The service will be on Zoom\, but you are most welcome to come together in groups and participate together.\nZoom link:\nhttps://united-church.zoom.us/j/94404739517?pwd=TDF3cy9MQ0NZYVN5SlFBMDl3aUxxdz09\nMeeting ID: 944 0473 9517.

SUMMARY:For the Love of Creation: Talking about climate change in SK
DESCRIPTION:Faithful Climate Conversations \nWe need to talk — all of us — about climate. \nWhat better place to open up this vital conversation than within our own circles of faith? “For the Love of Creation” invites faith communities across Canada to come together to reflect\, listen\, share\, and advocate for climate justice. \nTuesday\, February 23rd\, 7 to 9 p.m. via Zoom \nRegister at https://bit.ly/370ekSr\nHere in Saskatchewan\, the listening part will be crucial\, and for that\, FLC offers three discussion guides for small groups. Join us to explore the first guide\, “Creation\, Climate and You\,” and get ready to use these guides in your own community. \nOur evening together will follow the guide’s agenda\, including breakout rooms for the discussion portions so we can experience the small-group format. We’ll conclude with a sharing time where you can exchange ideas and inspiration to help you launch your own “Faithful Climate Conversations.” \nPresented by KAIROS Regina.
