Prairie Mosaic: An Intercultural Ministry Event in Saskatchewan

When: 
June 6, 2012 - June 7, 2012
Where: 
Grosvenor Park United Church, Saskatoon, SK
Cost: 

$75; $45 for youth and underemployed (includes Wednesday supper, Thursday lunch, light refreshments throughout)

Come and deepen your exploration of what "intercultural" might mean for the church! Recognizing that "intercultural" means much more than ethnicity, this regional intercultural event will explore many degrees of difference.

Prairie Mosaic takes place just before the Saskatchewan Conference AGM, in Saskatoon. Workshop themes will include affirming ministry, truth and reconciliation, intercultural church experiences and racial justice. Joseph Naytowhow is joining us as guest artist, and course credit is available through St. Andrew's College, Saskatoon.

Learning in Community

Learning Circles are designed for people would like to attend Prairie Mosaic as a group, and then continue to meet and reflect together. In the weeks before Behold—and during the conference itself—several such Learning Circles were formed.

Learning Circles

  • are groups of 5–12 people who attend the conference together
  • covenant for six monthly meetings
  • have a facilitator who meets with General Council Office staff by conference call three times over the length of the project

Learning Circles are a way to keep up the excitement of the conference as you bring new ideas back to your congregation, to experiment with how to become even more intercultural, and to connect with others across the country who are exploring the same ideas.

In addition, each Learning Circle will receive a grant of $1,200 per group. Full details are on the United in Learning con ed website.
