Walk in the Spirit of Reconciliation

Walk in the Spirit of Reconciliation

Participate in any/all of the days as we walk as individuals or in our family groups in lament and solidarity of our First Nations brothers and sisters, remembering the traumatic harm done by residential schools for so many generations. As anyone of our human family have been affected, we are all affected.

This year’s walk will be self-guided, maps will be provided and you can walk at a time that works best for you! There are a number of different routes and distances you can take.  If you don't live in the Fraser Valley area, you can still participate. Register for the event and select Solidarity Walk. Then go for a walk on May 28, 29, or 30 around your neighbourhood, in a park, or on a trail. Post pictures of your walk so we can see who is walking in different communities across Canada.

We will be following all BC Health regulations to prevent the spread of Covid-19. Organizers will inform you if the Reconciliation Walk event is canceled due to more strict restrictions. Please follow social distancing guidelines while participating, allowing 2 meters between other people or small groups of walkers. You may want to bring or wear a mask and have hand sanitizer with you.

Register for the walk and to receive your free t-shirt.

Finding God in the Here and Now

Finding God in the Here and Now

Tuesday, June 1, 2021

Facilitated by Katherine Murray on Zoom   

This four session workshop will explore what the scriptures say about God speaking to us, and look at a few saints & historical figures and what they have to tell us about hearing God. Through listening exercises and practice opportunities we will identify the ways we already hear God and explore new ways of listening to God.   

In addition we will learn about the Benedictine Life Model and listening to God, cultivate a heart of listening, and learn stewardship of what we hear.  

Registration: $40.00.  

Katherine is the facilitator of the Listening Prayer ministry at the Parish of St. Dunstan.
