For this reason, we are inviting all people who desire justice and long to see the erradication of poverty and homelessness to undertake a five-day vigil at City Hall, to bear witness to the urgent need for a just city, one in which adequate housing, sufficient income and meaningful support are made available to our brothers and sisters who are currently homeless and living in poverty.

Our Discipleship Training School (DTS) is a five month intensive in spiritual and missional formation. The first three months concentrates on engaging students in a holistic discipleship experience that challenges the mind, heart and body in a praxis oriented program. Offered in the heart of Winnipeg’s West End, students will integrate in one of the city’s most culturally diverse, yet poor neighbourhoods. Our emphasis on urban missions means that as part of the community, students will engage the realities of poverty, injustice, racism and much more, all the while have the opportunity to respond in exciting new ways.

The same people who were hyping the wisdom of deregulation are now screaming that banks & speculators should be bailed out, rather the individuals impacted by the "deregulated" madness. Capitalism, which has seduced so many of us with promises of prosperity and luxury, now pops up like a jack-in-the-box to look once more on a "real world" it has laid waste – on lives ruined, security trashed and hope trampled. A generation brought up to believe that affluence represents some existential truth about our lives will, inevitably, be disoriented and angry. If what appears to be unfolding brings about an increase in violence, crime, racism and breakdown, who will bear those costs, who will bail out a bankrupt society? Certainly not the makers of fortunes who we had followed and elevated like heroes and demi-gods. And certainly not the churches and good Christians who cheered this on.
