Special Congregational Meeting
Sunday, June 2, 2024
(following worship)
(note change of date)


Subject: Should Crossroads rent part of its unpaved back lot to the Sleeping Cabin community?
Background: City council has voted to shut down the sleeping cabin community but has given Our Livable Solutions (who run the cabins) until July 1 to find alternative land or the cabins will be sold off. Can Crossroads rent some of its underused land to help the homeless? You get to decide where to go with this on May 26.

Truth and Reconciliation Calls to ActionTruth and Reconciliation

The Truth and Reconciliation Commission was established in 2008 to document the history and impacts of the Canadian Indian residential school system on indigenous students and their families. Its final report was issued in 2015. In light of the recent revelations of gravesites identified on the grounds of former Indigenous Residential Schools, this is a good time to have a closer look at the Calls to Action (part of the larger report) that were put forward at that time.

About the season: Pentecost
When: Pentecost Sunday falls on May 19 in 2024.
About the Date: Pentecost Sunday occurs fifty days plus 7 Sundays after (and including) Easter. Although just one day in some traditions, in other traditions it may also refer to the season following Pentecost Sunday.
Colour: RED
Meaning: Traditionally celebrated as the birthday of the church, when the risen Christ appeared to a group of dispirited and fearful apostles after the crucifixion. It represents the renewal of purpose and an emphasis on God's ongoing work in the world through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, sometimes represented by images of flame and wind.
