Today was a blessed day as a cope (Bishops cape) commissioned by the Church of England to highlight the tragedy of the Stolen Generations was presented to First Nations community members at Adelaide Cathedral. Uncle Raymond Minniecon and Larissa Minniecon were among the representatives. It was created by Terry Duffy to be a reminder to us all of this dark chapter and keep compelling the whole community toward Restoration.

It’s a wonderful initiative! We hope that the cope will travel around the country. Pray with us that the cope will touch the hearts of many.

🌏 While Pastor Ray Minniecon is in Canada this week attending the NAIITS Symposium, exploring this year’s thought-provoking theme, “How to Be a Good Ancestor?”, we’re excited to keep the conversation going here at home!

Pastor Ray will be back with us next week, but today we’re delighted that his daughter, Larissa Minniecon, will be sharing her reflections as we commemorate National Reconciliation Week.

🔥 Join us at 4:00pm at the Scarred Tree for an afternoon of storytelling, reflection, a warm fire, and pot-luck food. Bring a plate to share and come be part of the conversation.

Everyone is welcome!
