Our Story in Our Language
February 19, 2022 - June 18, 2022
2022 is the UN Year of Indigenous Languages.
Join Susie McPherson Derendy & Adrian Jacobs for a Many Nations Virtual Teachings House on the Vision of Indigenous Testamur.
The buried history of colonialism has been revealed in unmarked graves at Residential Schools. Recovery of Indigenous languages and cultures is our path forward. In a series of online multi-lingual conversations, we’ll explore what community leadership training means for Indigenous communities of faith. Listen in and perhaps offer a story from your experience for the journey we’re on to say who we are and where we’re going.
Register below. Tickets are $25/session or $75 for the 5-part series.
All sessions start at 10:00 AM Central on the second last Saturday of the month.
Registration deadline is the Thursday before each session. Zoom links for each session will be sent to participants on the Friday before each session. Recordings of each session will be made available to ticket holders in the following week.
Colonialism took community control away from us and placed it in a colonial center of authority. Recovery from colonialism is our path moving forward. We will determine an Indigenous Testamur, a training program for ministry preparation, that will help our leaders be competent as the healers and helpers our communities are crying out for. – Calls to the Church by the Caretakers of Our Indigenous Circle
