Alongside Hope (PWRDF) Advent Reflections

Alongside Hope (PWRDF) invites you to journey through Advent with the Rev. Dr. Ray Aldred, a deacon in the Anglican Church of Canada and the director of the Indigenous Studies Program at the Vancouver School of Theology. In this year’s Advent resource, Dr. Aldred invites you to consider what it means to heal yourself, to heal others, and to heal God’s creation so we might live into right relationships.
The Journey launches with a webinar on November 20 at 10.00am Pacific. You can find out more and join the webinar here.
