The Spirituality of Ecojustice
Saturday, September 5, 2009, 9:45 am to 12:30 pm at
Christ Church Cathedral (Georgia and Burrard)
In downtown Vancouver

"I have become convinced that the developing concept of ecojustice can be a way forward, beyond the false dichotomy of social justice vs. ecological justice, as long as it is understood as a term that can include both human suffering an the groaning of the Earth."
Dr. Christopher Lind

 

 

You are invited to join Dr. Christopher Lind to explore the spirituality of ecojustice and how Christians can express and act on our faith valuing the earth as God's sacred creation.  Dr. Lind will make a presentation on this subject followed by time for group discussion and interaction.
 
Dr. Christopher Lind is a Senior Fellow of Massey College at the University of Toronto.
 
From 2003 to 2006 he served as Director of the Toronto School of Theology. The Toronto School of Theology is one of the largest and most diverse ecumenical theological cooperatives in North America. From 1985 until 2003 he was based in Saskatoon, first as Professor of Church & Society and then as President of St. Andrew's Theological College. A lay Anglican, from 2000 to 2003 he also served as President of the amalgamated St. Andrew's College and St. Stephen's College in Saskatoon and Edmonton, sponsored by the United Church of Canada.
