On May 5-6, 2017, we are inviting Presbyterian and Indigenous youth (ages 15-25) to gather at Camp Kannawin (Sylvan Lake, AB) for a time of fellowship, learning and dialogue about The Presbyterian Church in Canada’s role in healing and reconciliation with Indigenous peoples. The event will begin at 4:30 pm on May 5 and conclude on May 6 at 5:00 pm.

We are thrilled that participants will hear from Shirley Dufour and Grand Chief Wilton Littlechild. Shirley Dufour is a residential school survivor who attended Birtle Indian Residential School (one of the residential schools operated by The Presbyterian Church in Canada). She is a social worker and grief recovery specialist. Wilton Littlechild is a former Commissioner with the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.

Throughout the event, we will consider how young people can contribute to our journey towards reconciliation.
