Day for Truth & Reconciliation

This week we are taking time to stop and consider what Truth & Reconciliation means and why it is important.  What are truth and reconciliation?  What do they have to do with me?  Why wear an orange shirt?  These are all important questions and each one of us needs to contemplate our own role.  When it feels too big, too difficult, think on these words of Lee Maracle, a local Stolo author and poet (from Hope Matters):

Justice is an ember
burning slow and easy …
Justice calls us to burn
brightly together …
Justice is a song …
Let our songs ring out
Let our fire burn
Let our humanity
sing songs of hope
