SUMMARY:The Art of Living and Dying Workshop Series
DESCRIPTION:The Art of Living & Dying Series is more about living than about the end of life. This series of four internationally acclaimed workshops draws from the wisdom of our ancestors that the quality of life is enhanced when we do not live in fear or denial of suffering or our mortality. The results of facing or “leaning into”’ existential-spiritual pain are profound for both care-givers and care receivers and include:\n• Physical and emotional well-being\n• Antidotes for compassion fatigue and burnout\n• Enhanced capacity for healing\n• Improved pain and symptom-control management\n• Peace of mind and improved relationships \nEach workshop is an interactive and inspirational learning experience appropriate for professional and lay caregivers alike\, and are followed by a three-month study group process called Circles of Trust©. Participants explore universal patterns of spiritual and emotional suffering with time-tested ways to relieve them. All programs are a creative blend of best practices\, instruction\, personal reflection\, hands-on experience\, multimedia presentations\, and creative rituals from the world’s great wisdom traditions. \nSpecial United Church single + group pricing available. \nFor registration information email karin@sacredartofliving.org \n \nFull four workshop series flyer – UCC \nModule One Workshop:\nUnderstanding Spiritual Suffering\nMarch 3-4\, 2023 \nModule Two Workshop:\nRecognizing Spiritual Suffering\nMay 19-20\, 2023 \nModule Three Workshop:\nResponding to Spiritual Suffering\nSeptember 29-30\, 2023 \nModule Four Workshop:\nTransforming Spiritual Suffering\nJanuary 19-20\, 2024

SUMMARY:Liberating Liturgy
DESCRIPTION:★ Liberating Liturgy: Wednesday\, March 1\, 7:00 – 9:00 pm\nFeaturing Dr. Becca Whitla\, Professor of Practical Ministry and Lydia E. Gruchy Chair in Pastoral Theology. Livestreamed by the Saskatoon Theological Union.\nDr. Whitla explores what it means to liberate liturgy in today’s contexts. Drawing from the experience of several communities\, she proposes that churches that want to fully embrace the multilingual\, multiethnic\, multicultural realities of the Canadian context need to examine and transform what goes on at church on a Sunday morning. Using a couple of case studies – singing and territorial acknowledgements – she proposes some initial principles for liberating and decolonizing how we worship. There will even be a couple of chances to sing and dance. Please join us for some mid-winter warmth and conversation!!! Please register for both in-person and livestream options by emailing standrews.college@saskatoontheologicalunion.ca by February 22.

SUMMARY:Memorial Service for Omega Chilufya Bula
DESCRIPTION:Memorial Service for Omega Chilufya Bula: Monday February 6th 2023 at 8 AM EST (6 AM Mountain Time). \nA great Tree has fallen\n   – (African proverb)   \nIt is with broken hearts that people of The United Church of Canada mourn the passing of Omega Chilufya Bula\, Beloved Justice Leader\, Sister\, Elder\, Pioneer\, Mentor\, Friend and Colleague. Omega passed away in Lusaka\, Zambia on January 31 2023. Her son Mwai Bula shared the sad news that Omega passed away from heart complications after a long battle with cancer. \nOmega leaves an incomparable legacy of ecumenical leadership in the struggle for racial\, gender\, economic and social justice in her home country of Zambia\, across the African continent\, in The United Church of Canada\, and globally. She served in the General Council Offices in the Division of World Outreach as Area Secretary for Southern Africa and Gender Justice\, as the first-ever Racial Justice Minister\, and as Executive Minister of the former Justice\, Global and Ecumenical Relations (JGER) and Partners in Mission Units (PIM). Her commitment to partnership led to the formation of the Partner Council\, and was instrumental in shaping the Principles of Global Partnership that guide the global partnership program of The United Church of Canada today. \nThe global ecumenical movement has lost one of its greatest leaders\, and Omega will be deeply missed. \n“Well done\, good and faithful servant”.   \n(In Bemba):  Ichibote cha kwa Lesa chende naimwe (God’s peace go with you)  \n  \nThe United Church of Canada is hosting an online space on Zoom on Monday\, February 6th 2023 at 8 AM ET. where those who knew Omega Bula can gather to pray\, to remember her\, and to sing her soul to rest with God. Please join us. The Zoom link can be found on this page.  \nWe ask for your help to share this email with those whom you know of who would wish to join the online memorial who may not be aware of the online gathering. \n♥
