Book Study
Books can create space for listening, learning and meaningful conversation. The Indigenous Ministries Book Study brings people together to explore books that deepen our understanding of Indigenous histories, perspectives and experiences, while encouraging reflection and thoughtful action on the journey toward reconciliation.
