“Compassion is the wish that everyone, without exception, is free from pain and suffering and its causes.”


- Ruth King in Mindful of Race: Transforming Racism from the Inside Out


We envision a world in which we live and grow as One Global Family that respects and honours the interconnectedness of all life. In her book Mindful of Race: Transforming Racism from the Inside Out Ruth King says, “Bearing witness to racial suffering without turning away, we discover our humanity, our innate kinship.” We also discover our One Global Family. Using compassion, we say their names in order to stay present so that we can individually and collectively heal racism. This is the work of our times, the work we must do in order to truly live as One Global Family.


Reverend Cassandra Rae is an unexpected minister! She was raised evangelical Baptist and spent her twenties as an angry atheist. Then she had a medical crisis, which launched her onto a spiritual journey of healing and self-discovery. Now she's an advocate for an empowered spirituality that embraces your humanity as the path of knowing your divinity.


We welcome Ivan Boudreau as our live musician this week. A professional musician/songwriter and wandering minstrel for over 45 years, Ivan started in Nova Scotia and now resides in Greater Vancouver. With a passion for stories and songs that are honest and heartfelt, Ivan's passion for song writing is evident through his method of delivery. When he performs, it’s up close and personal.
