SUMMARY:PIE day at RWUC
DESCRIPTION:Robertson Wesley United Church’s affirming ministry is hosting a free community event for the evening of March 14th\, 2025\, Pi day\, or National Affirming Day; focusing on “P.I.E.” with the theme “sing out proud”. The aim of the event is to celebrate the 2SLGBTQIA+ community and Publicly\, Intentionally\, Explicitly (PIE) emphasize the work of Robertson-Wesley United Church and pride organizations across Edmonton\, who not only support\, but integrate and raise up the queer community in our midst. \nWith the Alberta Legislature recently putting through several anti-trans related bills\, the support of trans and non-binary individuals and vocal opposition to this sort of political rhetoric is essential. For that reason\, whatever donations are received for this event will be split 50/50 between Robertson Wesley’s affirming work and Egale Canada’s efforts towards the litigation against these bills. Egale Canada is working with several families and Skipping Stone\, suing the AB government for unconstitutional discrimination\, particularly for Bill 26\, which was just put into law on Dec 5\, 2024. \nThe event itself is free (donations happily accepted) and will feature delicious pie\, community networking\, socializing\, empowering words and a variety show of local performers. Come and be welcome!

SUMMARY:Learning gathering on unmarked burials
DESCRIPTION:Our Sacred Responsibilities: learning from the Unmarked Burials report and challenging settler denial. \nAll people of all backgrounds welcome to this day-long learning gathering\, open to Indigenous and non-Indigenous people. We will focus somewhat on the United Church’s responsibilities\, but all backgrounds are welcome as a full part of the day\, and we will not focus only on the United Church. \nTogether we will learn about the recent report on unmarked burials; explore what reparations means; learn about the problem of settler denialism; and practice together how to challenge it. Speakers and knowledge keepers will help us\, and all who come are full participants in helping each other and our communities create a good path forward. \nCommunity\, prayer\, ceremony\, and cultural supports will be part of our day. A separate support space is also available to First Nations\, Métis and Inuit\, respecting that this is a hard topic. \nPractical details\nPlease click here to register. Registration is free but required\, so we can plan for meals.  \nThe full reports from the Office of the Special Interlocutor on Unmarked Burials are available here. (They’re long\, which is one of the reasons we’re offering this learning space.) \nClick here for a PDF poster to share with your community. You can also use the image at the top of this page. \nResource people: elder Wilson Bearhead (invited); elder Dennis Paul;  knowledge keepers Rev John Snow and Rev Tony Snow; Sara Stratton\, Reconciliation and Justice Animator at the General Council of the United Church. \nPlan for our day: 9:30 gathering and coffee; program begins at 10:00AM; we will finish no later than 4:00PM. Our day will include (among other things): prayer and ceremony; an overview of key parts of the report on unmarked burials; reflection from a survivor; what do we and the report mean by “reparations”; what is settler denial\, and how can we challenge it? \nOur space: The building is fully accessible\, and we will be using mics to assist those with hearing needs. We will be in a space where Christian symbols are minimal\, and where smudging and medicines will be part of our day. There is parking on site\, and transit a block away. Lunch and snacks included. \nTravel costs for First Nations\, Métis\, and Inuk participants will be covered. \nOrganized by Indigenous Ministries and Justice of the United Church; Northern Spirit Regional Council: The United Church of Canada; and the Edmonton Cluster of the Being Good Relations Network. Thank you to Spiritual Seekers United in Community/ Southminster-Steinhauer United Church for hosting.
