Rethink and Renew: Restarting anti-poverty initiatives in the Church
February 6, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm
‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ In Matthew 25:40, God call us to be of service to others and to end poverty in our communities. The Covid-19 pandemic and resulting lockdown meant that many Church programs stopped running… and many did not start up again. This could be a time to lament what we have lost but it is also an opportunity to start again and build even better projects. Join MILC on Monday, February 6th at 6:30 p.m. via Zoom for a panel discussion about anti-poverty work in our communities. The panel presentations offer a chance to hear about Christian responsibility to work to end poverty, root causes of poverty in our communities and how Churches can get involved in practical projects. This panel of speakers will help participants bring new life to projects to address poverty in our communities.
Panel speakers:
Rev. Glen Eagle, United Church of Canada
Rev. Pam Cullen, London Community Chaplaincy
Rev. Michael Blair, General Secretary, United Church of Canada
