10 The 2018 program guide is available on line now! Plan your summer accordingly! Upcoming and Interesting SUNDAY, JULY 8 SATURDAY, JULY 14, 2018 The Spiritual Practice of Reconciliation with Mark MacDonald and Melanie Delva RECONCILIATION IS AN OFT-USED AND AT TIMES LITTLE- UNDERSTOOD TERM when it applies to Indigenous and non-indigenous peoples of Turtle Island (North America). But what is it, why should we pursue it, and how?

11 The Truth and Reconciliation Commission, Murdered and Missing Women and Girls Inquiry, and the actions and court proceedings having to do with Standing Rock have brought Indigenous justice issues to the fore. How we got here and where we go from here are complex questions that beg for spiritual answers. This course will create an open and safe space to begin to explore these questions in depth from both Indigenous and non-indigenous perspectives. Grounding our days together in prayer and ceremony, we will begin by learning about theologies of reconciliation in order to frame our subsequent discussions. We will then look at the history and background of colonialism before seeking to better understand western vs. Indigenous worldviews and ways that we sometimes fail to recognize Christ in one another. Finally, looking at recent movements towards reconciliation in Canada, together we will seek to imagine how we as a Church can become the force of reconciliation we are called to be. Course Fee: $ includes retreat sessions and space, meals Thursday dinner through Sunday lunch and three nights accommodation. Register for this course -
