"Beyond the Land Acknowledgement"
May 6-8 at Zephyr Point
The 2024 Zephyr Point Justice Conference will spark conversation and education on relationships with indigenous peoples. How can our churches and communities work toward repair and reconciliation? As Desmond Tutu once said, “If an elephant is standing on the tail of a mouse, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality.” Now is not a time for neutrality or moderation, but leaning into what we know is right. Come, be inspired and together let’s create change!
