Honouring the Voices We’ve Lost – May 5th Vigil Spirit of the Children Society, in partnership with Qayqayt First Nation and the City of New Westminster, invites you to join us on Monday, May 5th, from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM for a vigil in honour of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, Two-Spirit People, Children, and Men (MMIWG2S+). This National Day of Awareness is a time to honour the lives stolen and the families forever changed by ongoing violence rooted in colonialism and systemic injustice. Through ceremony, reflection, and community, we raise our voices to say: We remember. We resist. We will not forget. All are welcome to stand with us in healing and truth. Bring your hearts, your drums, your red shirts or ribbons—and most importantly, your presence. |
