It wears you out, grinds you down, and there is no end to it … Go into God’s world … Go from talk- ing and teaching about God to helping people experience God. People have hungrier hearts than heads — their hearts desire deeply to be put in touch with God. If the church can help them with that, they will come — they want to feel connected with God at worship. With these words, Canon Harold Percy launched an encouraging speech to members of Diocesan Council on March 23. “Don’t wonder ‘How can we save the church?’ Wonder ‘How can the church save the world?’ Then take the gospel to world with passion and creativity,” During March break seven adults and nine teenagers from the Church of the Resurrection in Grand Bay-Westfield (Parish of the he continued.

Public sector union growth has often been thought to have differed fundamentally from the experience of private sector unions, on the grounds that union rights were extended to public sector workers without struggle. The history of CUPE New Brunswick, established in 1963, and its predecessor unions in the 1950s demonstrates the complex struggles of civil servants and public employees to acquire and then to apply collective bargaining rights in the province of New Brunswick. While the enactment of the Public Service Labour Relations Act (PSLRA) in 1968 provided a legal means for civil servants to join a union and bargain collectively, public sector workers continued to struggle for improved wages and working conditions throughout the 1970s and 1980s.

  • Stepping Stones": Women and Political Rights
    "Stepping Stones": Women and Political Rights n 1784 an Order-in-Council at the Court of St. James in I London created the province of New Brunswick by separating the newly defined territory from the province of Nova Scotia. An influx of Loyalist refugees a year earlier had so augmented the population of the region, already peopled with Micmacs, Maliseets and reestablished Acadians, and had so increased demands for land grants that the colonial government in Halifax found the region difficult to administer efficiently, especially at such a distance. Some of the newly arrived Loyalists, impatient with the slowness of the Halifax government and displeased with sharing Nova Scotia with peoples they considered less loyal than themselves to the British crown, began agitating for their own administration. England was convinced. A new government was in order. A new province.' Born not of revolution - either military or ideological - the administrative creation hardly signaled an attempt at building a wholly new society. Rather, it reaffirmed the continued presence of English legal and political tradition in the region. This tradition, distinguished like other European legal and political systems by values based on male dominance of family and state,2 was to shape the lives of women and men of diverse cultures now living in the new province.3 What did the creation of the province signify in political terms to the women of the province - to the original women, theMicmacs and the Maliseets; to the reestablished Acadian women; to the recently established Black women;4 and to the newly arrived and diverse Loyalist women? Although the question requires us to evaluate the situation of 18th century women with 20th century criteria, we can nevertheless affirm that for even the most elitely placed of these women, the establishment of a new political order in the region did not improve or even alter women's status.

  • Grace in Auschwitz: a Glimpse of Light in Utter Darkness
    Grace in Auschwitz: A Glimpse of Light in Utter Darkness By Jean-Pierre Fortin A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Theology of the University of St. Michael‟s College and the Department of Theology of the Toronto School of Theology in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Theology Awarded by the University of St. Michael‟s College © Copyright by Jean-Pierre Fortin 2014 Grace in Auschwitz: A Glimpse of Light in Utter Darkness Jean-Pierre Fortin Doctor of Philosophy in Theology University of St. Michael‟s College 2014 Abstract Since the postmodern human condition and relationship to God were forged directly in the crucible of or in response to Auschwitz (the Shoah), the Christian theology of grace cannot elude the challenge of radical evil it paradigmatically embodies and symbolizes. The present dissertation attempts to provide a theology of grace that would enable twenty-first century postmoderns to meaningfully relate to the Christian tradition. A theological interface accomplishing the transposition of the theology and categories of the traditional account of grace into ones accessible to twenty-first century westerners is therefore constructed. By means of the study of landmark literary, philosophical and theological works on Auschwitz produced by individuals who directly suffered it, an attempt at monitoring the human (and ultimately postmodern) condition, experience and evolution (in themselves and in relation to the transcendent) through time from before, through the event and up to the experience of renewed freedom is made. This is followed by the consideration of the reality of grace as it has been experienced, reflected upon and understood by western Christianity.

An intensely personal yet epic spiritual journey, The Horse Boy follows one Texas couple and their autistic son as they trek on horseback through Outer Mongolia in an attempt to find healing for their son. When two-year-old Rowan was diagnosed with autism, Rupert Isaacson, a writer and former horse trainer, and his wife Kristin Neff, a psychology professor, sought the best possible medical care for their son—but traditional therapies had little effect. Then they discovered that Rowan has a profound affinity for animals— particularly horses—and the family set off on a quest that would change their lives forever. Directed by Michel Orion Scott, The Horse Boy is part travel adventure, part insight into shamanic healing and part intimate look at the autistic mind. In telling one family’s extraordinary story, the film gives voice to the thousands who display amazing courage and creativity everyday in the battle against this mysterious and heartbreaking epidemic. The filmic companion to Isaacson’s best-selling book of the same name, and a festival favorite, this ravishing documentary odyssey gives insight into how, in life’s darkest moments, one can find the gateway to joy and wonder.
