National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

September 24, 2023

The CBAC is joining with our Canadian Baptist Family to provide this resource on September 30th.  As we commemorate the 2023 National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we invite you to join us in a prayerful and reflective commemoration, right on the very lands where you live, work, and play. To ensure this year’s observance is even more impactful, there are three meaningful steps you can take to honour the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation wherever you are located.

The complete guide has been developed by our Canadian Baptist Family (Canadian Baptists of Western Canada, Canadian Baptists of Ontario & Quebec, L’Union d’Églises baptistes francophones du Canada, Canadian Baptists of Western Canada, Canadian Baptist Ministries). The complete resource is available on CBM’s website: https://www.cbmin.org/nationalday/
