SUMMARY:Alpha - On-Line  - Evening
DESCRIPTION:Alpha is a series of interactive sessions exploring the basics of the Christian faith. \nEach session looks at a different question\, and is designed to create conversation. There’s no pressure\, no follow-up and no charge; it’s just an open\, informal\, and honest space to explore and discuss life’s big questions together. \nOffered ONLINE weekly for 11 weeks\, on Wednesday evenings from 7:00pm – 8:30pm starting on September 27\, 2023 \nVideo.\nThe videos are designed to be engaging and inspire conversation. Usually around 30 minutes long\, they explore the big issues around faith and unpack the basics of Christianity\, addressing questions like “Who is Jesus?”\, “Why and how do I pray?” and “How does God guide us?” \nSmall Group Discussion.\nProbably the most important part of any Alpha: the chance to share thoughts and ideas about the talk without being corrected or judged. There’s no obligation to say anything; it’s an opportunity to hear from others and contribute your own perspective. \nCheck out the first session to see if this is something you would like to explore! \nAll are welcome!

SUMMARY:Rimbala Classes for Seniors
DESCRIPTION:Rimbala is an evidence-based falls prevention program that uses music as the principle means of intervention. Based on the work of visionary Swiss composer Émile Jaques-Dalcroze\, Rimbala enjoys one of the highest falls prevention results in the world\, with a 54% reduction in falls for community-dwelling seniors. \nOlder adults improve their gait (walking style)\, mobility\, cognitive skills and social intelligence in a relaxed but joyous setting. The improvised music brings fresh neuroplastic experiences that improves the connection between the body and brain in ways that conventional exercise cannot. Because music is broadly distributed in the brain\, there is a hypothesis that gentle exercise with cognitive components can prevent participants from the ravages of dementia — including Alzheimer’s. \nFor more information\, please visit: www.rimbala.com \nClasses are held at: \nRosedale United Church 159 Roxborough Dr\, Toronto Wednesdays 11:30 AM-12:30 PM $20.00 per session \nand online at various times throughout the week. \nPlease contact Dr. Daniel Rubinoff: 416.709.8381 doctor.rimbala@gmail.com

An amateur philosopher\, he reflects on his life and “The Meaning of Life.” As he shares his memories and observations\, he keeps arriving at the same judgement: “Meaningless!” Come to Northlea to find out how it all turns out on November 24\, 2023. Doors open at 7:00pm\, play begins at 7:30. Free will offering (suggested $20) will be added to the Refugee Fundraiser to help bring a family to Canada from Afganistan!

SUMMARY:Historical Contributions of Canadian Missionaries in Korea
DESCRIPTION:This year marks the 60th Anniversary of official diplomatic ties between the Republic of Korea and Canada\, a relationship that has its roots in the selfless work of Canadian missionaries in Korea. As we celebrate this milestone year in Korea-Canada relations\, we invite you to join us for a special seminar presentation\, which aims to shed light on the incredible legacies of Canada’s earliest missionaries to Korea—one of the oldest links that bind Korea and Canada together. Emmanuel College’s Centre for Religion and Its Contexts is honoured to host this event in close collaboration with the Consulate General of the Republic of Korea in Toronto.

SUMMARY:Exploring Sacred Bonds ~ Fairlawn Fall Study with Rev. Jean Ward
DESCRIPTION:Join us in-person or on Zoom to explore the sacred bonds of belonging\, relationship and reciprocity through two books: \nBraiding Sweetgrass – Indigenous Wisdom\, Scientific Knowledge and the Teachings of Plants by Robin Wall Kimmerer\, 2013 \n“Action on behalf of life transforms. Because the relationship between self and the world is reciprocal\, it is not a question of first getting enlightened or saved and then acting. As we work to heal the earth\, the earth heals us.” \n“The land knows you\, even when you are lost.” \n“Knowing that you love the earth changes you\, activates you to defend and protect and celebrate. But when you feel that the earth loves you in return\, that feeling transforms the relationship from a one-way street into a sacred bond.” \nThe Woman Who Went To The Moon – Poems of Igloolik by Rosemary Clewes\, 2017 \n“… these poems will speak to those for whom body\, soul\, and naming are not divisible.”
