This is an opportunity for your congregation to learn and have a conversation about justice and reconciliation with Indigenous leaders and act on the TRC's "Calls for Action" to the churches.
 You will be able to:
  • Display and experience the Classis-owned prints by Cree artist, Ovide Bighetty, at your church for up to two weeks.They are themed around the Easter Story.
  • Host an event for your congregation where you could speak about topics such as aboriginal ministries, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, TRC calls to action and ‘next steps.'
As church leaders; consider the following:
  • Contact NADC office at yournadc@gmail.com and let them know your preferred dates to host the prints in the next year.
  • Decide on a point person(s) for organizing an event and to bridge the correspondence with the worship team, pastoral team and the NADC consultant. This person would be responsible for the following potential initiatives:
    • Planning the date for your event and having indigenous leaders to come and speak
    • Specific logics such as time of day, amount of time per speaker, discussion time, time for wandering and looking at prints, food and drinks
    • Invite a neighbouring congregation or community
    • Invite First Nations neighbours and friends
Classis Ad Hoc committee and NADC consultant will offer support with the following:
  • A list of suggestions for inviting indigenous leaders for your event
  • Transportation of prints to and from your church
  • Suggestions for event format
Costs:
  • Individual churches are responsible for speaker honorariums and event costs
  • Classis will pay for travel costs of prints
