This November 16th, at St. Mary's, Kerrisdale from 9:30am-3pm, the Diocesan Youth Movement is offering a one day training opportunity for youth workers, Sunday School teachers, camp staff, clergy and anyone else who ministers with children and young people on Safe Church.

This workshop builds on our Diocesan sexual misconduct training and will deepen our knowledge and understanding of how to create safe spaces for ministry with children and young people within our ministries. This is an excellent complement to our Screening in Faith program and will be valuable for any person in the parish who ministers with children or youth. 

The training will be facilitated by Marion Little, Canon Pastor and Screening in Faith Coordinator in the Diocese of British Columbia. The material used is called RespectED, and has been developed in partnership with the Canadian Red Cross.
