SUMMARY:CCS Friday –  Becoming an Anti-Racist Church

The conversation will be facilitated by Adele Halliday who is the Anti-Racism and Equity Lead staff at the United Church’s General Council Office. An experienced anti-racism educator\, workshop leader\, and award-winning writer\, Adele has been involved in anti-racism work with churches in Canada and beyond for many years.

SUMMARY:Western Intercultural Network conversation and AGM
DESCRIPTION:Encountering the Intercultural Iceberg: the Clergy Collar! Speakers Rev Lee Spice\, Rev Piotr (Peter) Strzelecki VDM\, and resource people from the WIMN executive\, followed by conversation and a short AGM for the Network.\n\nJoin the Western Intercultural Ministry Network as we explore the cultural iceberg –specifically\, the clergy collar. What values\, histories\, stories\, power dynamics lie below the surface and the water lines of our lives when we see the clergy collar? Let’s talk Intercollartural Ministry together! (Scroll down for a fuller introduction.) \nAll welcome- all identities and all people on the intercultural learning journey. Click here to see the mandate and terms of reference for our network. \nOur network crosses many time zones. Here’s our timing: 11:30AM – 1:30PM (PDT)\, BC\n12:30PM – 2:30PM (MDT/ CST)- AB and SK\n1:30PM – 3:30PM (CDT)\, MB and parts of NW Ontario\n2:30PM – 4:30PM (EDT) ON and QC \nZoom link here.\nMeeting ID: 961 7898 5162\nPassword: 279621 \n+1 647 558 0588 Canada\n+1 778 907 2071 Canada\n+1 438 809 7799 Canada\n+1 587 328 1099 Canada\n+1 647 374 4685 Canada\n855 703 8985 Canada Toll-free \nIntro to our topic: In intercultural work\, we often refer to the cultural iceberg.  With icebergs\, only the top of the iceberg is visible on top of the ocean\, while under the waterline the iceberg may be vast\, deep and wide.  Often\, the most important parts of ourselves may be hidden beneath the waterline\, and encountering those can bring us into richer and more respectful relationship with each other. Sometimes\, icebergs that look far away from each other on the surface can bump into each other under the water – sometimes gently\, sometimes causing damage. \nFor our coffee and chai conversation this month\, we are going to explore the cultural iceberg that we call the clergy collar.  On the surface\, it might seem like a small thing\, a symbol of office that some clergy intentionally wear and others do not.  Some church members and people in the general public are comforted by it\, others are puzzled by it\, others are traumatized by it.  Some clergy are comfortable wearing it\, and others are not.  All of our responses to this visible symbol of office are informed by our values\, our histories\, our stories\, our power in society – those often unseen things that exist beneath the water lines of our lives.  Let’s get together for meaningful conversation\, and explore who we are as an intercultural community\, through the lens of the cultural iceberg we call the clergy collar. Here’s one suggested reading\, which may reflect the views of many in the church. And we’ll explore more views together.
