sj101 Day a Success

Thank you to all 31 participants who joined us at Siloam Mission on August 29, 2009 for our sj101 day. It is great to see that Winnipeggers are interested in learning more about poverty and homelessness in our city and discovering how they can make a difference.

With a variety of different sessions and activities, we had very informative day. Time was spent at Siloam Mission volunteering and touring the facility, participating in educational topical sessions, and learning about a couple other agencies in Winnipeg’s inner city.

It is our hope that each person involved has been encouraged to continue searching for optimistic solutions and feels inspired to advocate on behalf of those who experience poverty and homelessness in our city.

This Saturday!

This Saturday, August 29, is our sj101 day for adults.

It’s a day long event designed to help people on their continuing journey of becoming optimistic, solution-based advocates for domestic social justice. sj101 is an investigative learning experience encouraging participants to confront their thoughts about poverty and homelessness in Winnipeg.

We have 28 people registered and we think it’s shaping up to be a great day!

Keep an eye out for news about upcoming exciting service and educational programs to get involved in at Siloam Mission.
