Paddling Together for Community

Brechin United Church

2020 Estevan Rd

9:30-3:30 (doors open 9:00)

November 8th, 2025

An experiential workshop for Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal folks which will deepen and inspire the vision of ‘community’ within organizations.

Traditionally we had many, many ways of treating one another which affirmed our belief that everyone is a sacred gift.

 

This workshop experience from the Village Workshop Series© will help awaken and deepen the participant’s understanding of traditional ways and values in ‘Village’. The workshop looks at how we can make our places of work more like a ‘Village’ and explores our personal and organizational roles in supporting the revival of those values that worked so beautifully for thousands of years. Together, participants will vision and commit to organizational goals and focus on lateral kindness.

 

Paddling Together has been inspired by Jann Derrick’s teachings regarding the Circle and many elder’s teachings. It is geared to solutions and is a great forum in which to ask questions.addling
