This Affirming celebration will be part of Prairie to Pine’s annual meeting, May 28-30, and all are welcome. You do not need to register for the meeting in order to attend. We will gather around an open table in all of our individuality, our many colours, languages, abilities, ages, gender identities and expressions, sexualities, and more, to share communion and celebrate Jesus’ love for us all. Together we will commit to the next stage of our Affirming journey together. This celebration builds on the past and present work of many, including the Affirming presbyteries within the Affirming Conference of Manitoba and NW Ontario, and the many Affirming ministries and people within our Regional Council.
