SUMMARY:Webinar: Changemaking in Bilingual Places with the Tamarack Institute
DESCRIPTION:The purpose of this webinar is to invite people who run NGOs or lead justice struggles in bilingual communities who need to navigate two sociolinguistic communities simultaneously so that everyone moves forward together. What are the challenges they face? What are the strengths of operating in a bilingual community? How has it engaged both communities at their distinct starting points?  Multilingual community engagement requires much more than translation and interpretation. This webinar aims to explore these questions and more to launch into a tool to support true multilingual community engagement. This webinar is taking place in French with simultaneous interpretation into English. \nRead more and register!

SUMMARY:Sunday School Share and Swap (First Third Ministries)
DESCRIPTION:We put Sunday School in the title\, because it allowed us to make a fun alliteration\, but this is for all your congregational children ministry\, whether or not you have a formal Sunday School. \nThe idea is simple: come on a zoom meeting at lunch time on Wednesday June 12th and share and swap ideas about lectionary-based children friendly church experiences for the season of creation. It can be a Sunday School lesson\, a story for worship\, a craft\, a game\, you name it! \nThe goal is to better equip ministers\, lay staff\, and volunteers with creative ideas to minister to the children in our communities of faith. \nThis project is still in the development stage. We are hoping to have a session like this for every liturgical season and develop an accessible regional resource for children ministry. \nNo registration needed: just show up with an open mind and a willingness to share. \nJoin Zoom Meeting: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/81254484699  \nMeeting ID: 812 5448 4699

SUMMARY:Online learning event: Demystifying Low Literacy
DESCRIPTION:(presented by Literacy Unlimited / Family Life Centre)\nFebruary 27\, 1:30 to 2:30 pm \nPlease advertise this free info session far and wide! It’s for church staff\, clergy\, lay leaders\, volunteers and\, in fact\, anyone! Please feel free to share it with any organizations with whom your church partners. The session is on Zoom to be easily accessible to all\, and it’s free. \nWhen I met with Literacy Unlimited to plan this\, I was astounded to learn that people who do not read or write well avoid any situation where they might feel `less than’ — and that there are simple ways we\, as churches\, can be more equitable and welcoming. It was eye-opening. \nEveryone knows someone who lives with low literacy — even if they keep it well hidden. Anything we can do in our church programmes\, activities\, worship and communications to make them feel comfortable is a worthwhile investment of time. \n– shared by Elizabeth Chown-Lafrenière\, Family Life Centre  \nDownload poster: 2024-02-27 Demystifying Low Literacy-FLC\nLearn more / register: familylifecentre@gmail.com

SUMMARY:Online Learning Session: Strategic Plan 2024
