SUMMARY:EVERY CHILD MATTERS
DESCRIPTION:Statement from Executive Minister Rob Ogilvie: \nThe CBWC joins with the Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc to mourn the deaths of the 215 children discovered in an unmarked mass grave at the site of the Kamloops Indian Residential School. \nWe pray for all Residential School Survivors and intergenerational survivors as this awakens afresh layers of trauma endured for generations. \nThese children were precious in the eyes of God. Their lives and the gifts that they had to offer were stolen from their communities and their families. We lament this irreplaceable loss\, acknowledging and repenting of the ways that the Christian church enacted the state mandated policies of assimilation. \nWe know that lament is not enough and there is a need for just action as well. We are reminded of our commitment to the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples which guides us as a framework for reconciliation and we call for renewed commitment to the TRC Calls to Action. \nToday though\, is the time to express sorrow and pledge again our solidarity with Indigenous peoples in Canada. We lament together. We stand with you.
