A group of newcomer youth and adults remind us that the Regina Open Door Society (RODS) exists to create a welcoming community enriched by the diversity and strength of newcomers to Canada. In June and November 2019, a group of newcomers met with local author, Gail Bowen, to develop their creative writing skills and to tell their stories. The RODS’ Welcoming Community for Newcomers (WCN) program, along with its partners, is proud to share these stories. We want to thank the participants for their hard work and dedication, and for opening a door into their new beginnings, and their process of becoming who they want to be in Canada. It is our hope that Becoming will open your hearts to learn, smile, laugh and tear-up, and your arms to welcome and encourage newcomers to Canada, making Regina and surrounding area their new home. Enjoy! The Regina Open Door Society’s Welcoming Community for Newcomers Program f you write, you are a writer. As an advocate for the art and Icraft of writing, the vision of the Saskatchewan Writers’ Guild is to continually support and promote all writers and their vital contributions to a healthy and vibrant society.
