The recent news from Kamloops B.C. from the former residential school site has gripped our nation with grief and lament. Lament is an appropriate start, but lament is not enough. We read from 2 Chronicles chapter 12 and see how the story of King Rehoboam echoes today in Canada, the western church, and our denomination. Healing and reconciliation are key elements to the church's ministry in Canada in the twenty-first century. Following Jesus leads down pathways to reconciliation and reformation.
This week we worship with prayer, a reflection about healing and reconciliation with Indigenous communities based on 2 Chronicles 12:1-12.
Thank you for joining us for our online worship service for Sunday, June 6, 2021. Thank you for stopping by the St. John's Grimsby Home Edition.
