Stones Cry Out:
Praying with the Land
The stones are crying out for justice especially in the ways we pray and worship. Let us begin by listening to the land, hearing the ancient voices of creation that hold our narratives.
This conference engages questions of how to begin to decolonize worship within the Anglican and Lutheran contexts.
Our traditional expressions of worship reflect a richness of our faith communities seeking to comunicate our relationships with God. Those faith-filled liturgies are often embedded with the language and expressions of 'empire'--biases which can exclude voices from the margins.
Can our churches create liturgies that make space for these voices? Can we confront empire in the way we pray, sing, preach and celebrate the sacraments? Can we decolonize liturgy on Turtle Island in light of the Truth and Reconciliation Commissions Calls to Action?
Join our panel of speakers and worship resource people to discover ways to begin this work together. (adapted)
