We've made commitments throughout the years as a denomination to turn away from the sins of colonization and dehumanization and towards a better way of walking together, in respect of our treaties and Indigenous rights.
In 2016, Synod repudiated the Doctrine of Discovery and the concept of ‘terra nullius’ as heresies. What does this mean, why does it matter, and how can we live into this commitment to seek reconciled relationships built on respect between Indigenous peoples and other inhabitants of "Turtle Island"?
The CRCNA Canada Justice & Reconciliation Team is offering a unique learning opportunity. It combines a Blanket Exercise with an info session on the commitments that the CRC has made to Indigenous Justice and Reconciliation.
Some tools and resources for congregations to live out a ministry of reconciliation with our Indigenous neighbours.
After the Truth and Reconciliation Commission event in Vancouver, a debriefing event was held to provoke discussion around reconciliation in other CRC communities and contexts.
The Blanket Exercise is an excellent tool that walks participants through the history of relationships between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people in Canada.
