The Litany of ReconciliationFriday 12:15pm As a member of the Community of the Cross of Nails, we gather weekly at noon on Fridays to pray for peace, justice, and reconciliation. We start our prayer with: We stand together at this Friday noon hour to join with all those churches, schools, and other institutions who have committed themselves to the Community of the Cross of Nails. We search for reconciliation between ourselves and all those who have been harmed by war, by violence, by the effects of colonization and abuses of power, and by greed, selfishness, thoughtlessness and indifference. Please click on Litany of Reconciliation for the prayer in its entirety. A brief history of the Litany of Reconciliation can be found on The Anglican Diocese of Ontario website. |

Scientists tell us the world’s major economies only have until 2030 to cut emissions in half from 2005 levels to avoid the most catastrophic impact of climate change in our lifetime. We will not all agree on the best way forward but we need to pay attention to the campaign, listen to different points of view, and cast our ballots on Feb 27. |
