Lunch & Learn
November 24 @ 12:30 pm - 2:00 pm
Sun, Nov. 24, 12:30pm, Upper Annex –“How Christians Help (and Hurt) Around the World” What kind of missionary and development work should Christians in countries like Canada support? What harms have well-meaning Christian missions caused abroad, and how can those mistakes be avoided in the future? What should churches and individuals look for as they consider how to best use their charitable resources? Join us for our next Lunch & Learn to dig into these questions and to learn from a panel of Little T members with rich experience in international development and Christian missions. RSVP to https://forms.gle/pncW9X3wksNgb2de8 to register and let us know of any food restrictions and if childcare is needed.
