WorshipSUNDAY SERVICE
Live-Streaming at 10:15 AM St. Michael's Residential School: Lament & Legacy - Nancy Dyson Rubenstein Nancy Dyson Rubenstein will share recollections from four months she spent as a childcare worker at the Alert Bay Student Residence in Alert Bay, B.C. in 1970 and her hopes for Reconciliation. Nancy is a member of the Unitarian Fellowship of Ottawa. After retiring from a career as an early childhood educator, Nancy and her husband Dan Rubenstein wrote a work of youth fiction, Railroad of Courage (Ronsdale Press, 2017). Their second work, St. Michael's Residential School: Lament & Legacy is a recollection of four months as childcare workers at a residential school in Alert Bay, B.C. By sad coincidence, their book was released just as Canadians learned about the unmarked graves of 215 children at the former residential school in Kamloops, B.C. Several at FirstU are familiar with Nancy's recent opinion piece in the Globe and Mail. St. Michael's Residential School is available at independent bookstores, Chapters and Amazon. The Rubensteins are donating royalties from the sale of the book to the Indian Residential School Survivors Society and other support services for survivors. For more information, here is the link to the Rubenstein's website. Please Note: Congregants and visitors will be invited to donate to the Indian Residential Schools Survivors Society (IRSSS). This can be done in a number of ways: You can donate online at the IRSSS website, OR you can donate to the IRSSS through FirstU:
