Black History Month Worship Experience
- Worship
We extend a warm invitation to join us on Sunday, February 9th, 2025 at 10:30 am as we welcome Dr. The Hon. Jean Augustine as our guest speaker. Dr. Augustine made his/herstory as the first Black woman elected to Canada’s Parliament, serving from 1993 to 2006. Throughout her distinguished career she served as Parliamentary Secretary to the Prime Minister, Minister for Multiculturalism and the Status of Women, Chair of the Foreign Affairs Committee, and Deputy Speaker.
Her legislative successes are many. She is however most reknown for her leadership role in piloting through the House of Parliament the historic Black History Month Motion, which today recognises February as Black History Month across Canada. Come and hear this dynamic speaker and learn of her remarkable journey of leadership and service. Dr. Augustine is also recognised for the “Famous Five” Motion to honour women’s suffrage across Canada. Join us for an amazing service of thanksgiving on Sunday, February 9th, at 10:30 am. We look forward to seeing you for this special service .
