Indigenous Lenten Series – Wisdom of the Elders: Teachings from the Indian Ecumenical Conference

April 12, 2022 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm

Sponsored by the Urban Indigenous Circle, Chinook Winds Region and Pacific Mountain Region

This year we examine Lent through the lens of our Indigenous Elders. 50 years ago the Elders of the Indian Ecumenical Conference gathered from across Turtle Island, including many from the US, Central America and beyond. During this time,  Traditional Spiritual Leaders, Wisdom Keepers, Elders, Indigenous Clergy and our ecumenical partners in the United Church of Canada, Anglican Church of Canada, Catholic Church and others attended to understand and demystify traditional Indigenous spiritual practices. The sharing of these Elders and Knowledge Keepers helped shape Indigenous advocacy, outreach and visions for reconciliation. We delve into their teachings to understand their vision for our current time.

Everyone is welcome.
