SUMMARY:GreenFaith Montreal - planning meeting - March 2022
DESCRIPTION:SAVE THE DATE: Monday\, April 25\, 2022 (around noon) for an in-person event in St. James Square in support of GreenFaith Sacred Seasons (https://greenfaith.org/sacred-season/). The timing overlaps with the start of Easter season\, the final days of Ramadan\, and having just finished the celebration of Passover and Earth Day – and so climate justice/earth day themes could be reflected on in the context of these high holy seasons. If you aren’t able to be there on the actual day\, any input you would still want to offer to the planning will be very appreciated! A planning session (on Zoom) for the event is scheduled for March 30\, 2022 at 11:00 am.  \nContact Rev. Wendy Evans (email below) for Zoom link.

SUMMARY:CLERGY APPRECIATION MONTH
DESCRIPTION:Romans 10:15 – How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the Gospel of Peace and bring glad tidings of good things. \nThe Board of Vocation feels tremendous gratitude for the dedication and commitment of the Ministers who work tirelessly for their communities. We understand and appreciate that it takes many hours of the day to be creative\, steadfast and perform the work that is necessary to fulfil that commitment of creating an atmosphere of peace and love in your church community. We see that this can be difficult in the face of the pandemic and unrest in other parts of the world as it affects us all. We want you to know that we as a board are grateful and send you our prayers in support of your well-being. \nCommunities of faith and pastoral charges are also invited to find creative ways to show their appreciation for their ministry personnel. See the link below for some suggestions. \nLearn more: https://nakonhakaucc.ca/blog/2021/10/18/october-is-clergy-appreciation-month/
