National Day for Truth & Reconciliation – Sept 30
/in Family and Friends, News/by Danielle Kinvig
Each year, September 30 marks the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.
The day honours the children who never returned home and survivors of residential schools, as well as their families and communities. Public commemoration of the tragic and painful history and ongoing impacts of residential schools is a vital component of the reconciliation process.
Menno Place will recognize September 30th as a Statutory Holiday.
As a Christian faith-based organization, we believe in a God who reconciles us to Himself and to one another. We value this opportunity to reflect, learn, and seek healing together as a nation.
