Social Justice has become quite the buzz word in our society. In the Bible, we read God's call to "let justice flow like a river" and His command to "do justice, love mercy and walk humbly" with Him - in both our personal and communal lives, as well as in the structures of our societies.

But what is Biblical Justice? How do we "do" justice?

Let's learn together!

The Centre for Public Dialogue and Diaconal Ministries Canada teamed up to create this latest workshop which will help you to explore how the Bible talks about peace, justice and faithful action. You’ll learn about how exploitive structures cause injustice, explore how advocacy can bring change and healing when injustice has been done, and be introduced to practical steps to bring justice and shalom to your local contexts.

“When relief is merely a bandaid that alleviates the symptoms of poverty but fails to address the root causes, then it is illegitimate. Such assistance merely helps people to manage their poverty rather than to escape from it.” (Establishing a Church-based Welfare-to-Work Mentoring Ministry, by Amy Sherman)

This workshop trains and equips churches and organizations to address poverty and injustice both locally and globally in hopeful and helpful ways.

*A workshop for every church and diaconate!*

Refugee sponsorship normally lasts 12 months - but what about after that? When and how do churches prepare newcomers to Canada for the months and years that follow? What services are available to support both them and sponsorship teams when moving towards self-sufficiency?

This workshop will equip deacons, sponsorship teams, pastors and friends of newcomers to navigate the transition beyond the 12-month sponsorship period.
