Theological Reflections

Towards a Theology of Reconciliation Between the Roman Catholic Community in Canada and First Nations

The historic Indian Residential Schools Settlement Agreement (2007) mandated the Government of Canada to establish a Truth and Reconciliation Commission. With this Commission, we are living a time of truth-telling about the history of Residential Schools and a time of reconciliation. It is an invitation to enter into a new relationship built on recognition, mutual respect, sharing and responsibilité. A time of grace! Based on a talk by Marie Zarowny, SSA given at St. Joseph’s Parish, Ottawa, March 19, 2009. A shorter version of this talk was published in the CRC Bulletin, Volume 8, no.3 - Fall 2011.
