AT THE HEART OF JUSTICE

Climate Justice - Faithfully Responding

We are called to live with respect in creation—not respect "for" creation, as a separate entity—but respect "in" the creation that is all around and within us. As temperatures rise and weather becomes more destructive, as vulnerable regions become more vulnerable, and the call to live into reconciliation rings out, how can we faithfully respond?

Black Peoples in the United Church

Black History Month in February is a perfect time to use Sankofa, a DVD that introduces the diverse histories and heritages of Black peoples in the United Church. It features little-known facts about the United Church and helps viewers discover connections between faith, identity, and culture.
