The Moderator of the United Church of Canada the Right Rev. Dr. Carmen Lansdowne will be in Ottawa on Saturday, September 14 and Sunday September 15.
On the 14th from 9:00 am – 4:30 pm, EOORC will be holding an in person workshop at Emmanuel United Church, 691 Smyth Road that will be attended by the Moderator. Spend a day with the Moderator, engaging in reflection and energizing activities towards dream-oriented action for our churches and communities. Registration is recommended.
All around the world – from universities to the United Nations, from corporations to community organizations – people are talking about flourishing. Rooted in belonging, flourishing means living with purpose and joy, and bringing bold collaborative solutions to our world’s challenges. The Moderator, the Rev. Dr. Carmen Lansdowne, wants to bring that conversation to The United Church of Canada. She invites us to connect to one another in hope, with a deep conviction by a belief that, despite all the challenges of church life in this day and age, we can move from despair to transformation – from languishing to flourishing.
On Sunday, at Glebe St. James, the Moderator will be participating in the worship service which will start around 10:30 but you might want to come early if you want to get a seat! All are welcome.
