It is with great joy that we announce the arrival of two new team members at the Nakonha:ka Regional Council.
Aviyah Abrams has been working with the Regional Council in supporting the Living in Right Relations Leadership Team’s project Respect & Kanoronhkwátshera over the last year. She has worked in the non-profit sector as well as for the Federal Government and comes with significant skills in the field of communications. Aviyah will begin her role as our Communications Assistant on January 6th.
Esther Guillen joins our staff team as the new Communities of Faith Support Minister. Esther has grown up in the United Church, has just finished her PhD thesis on the Gospel of Matthew at McGill, and has contributed to the leadership of Saint Martha’s Chapel (an ecumenical ministry). Esther brings a passion for theology and ministry development. She also begins in her role on January 6th.
I repeat my deep gratitude to Judy Coffin and David-Roger Gagnon for their work over the years to strengthen our Regional Council’s ministry. I look forward to working with Aviyah and Esther as we build into the future. Please join me in welcoming them!
