May-6-2018: Transforming Perspective

Rev. Debra Thorne
How do we live together with completely different world views? Members of Beacon have been educating themselves in the history of indigenous people and realizing that their way of seeing and being in the world is so very different than that of the settler. For example there is no word for wilderness in First Nation world view, their word for wilderness is simply ‘home’. Participants from the Truth, Healing and Reconciliation program will join Rev. Debra and share examples from their transformed perspective.
