TRUTH & RECONCILIATION AT ST PAUL'S UNITED CHURCH in PERTH
On January 15th, Glenn Tunnock will be leading the worship service at St. Paul’s and the theme he has chosen is the Truth about Reconciliation. He will address the historical events of the cultural divide between Indigenous peoples in Canada and European settlers that dates to original contact and then trace the history of the inter-relationship of Indigenous peoples and gov’t actions (legislation, commissions) that have lead to the formalized recognition of Indigenous rights…all elements of the truth leading to measures for/or reconciliation. He will then talk to the current discrepancies in service delivery and justice leading to some suggested recommendations for reconciliation by individuals, and governments.
The service is at 10 am and everyone is welcome to attend as well as your colleagues, friends and loved ones.
Glenn hopes that this may be a stepping stone for ensuring a greater awareness of the issues and the actions that are necessary to reconcile the fractured relationships of the past so that honour, reverence and dignity can bring us together, stronger and resilient as a people and as a community.
