"1994 has been named by the United Nations as the International Year of the Family. A National Convocation of Native people in the Anglican Church of Canada in August 1993 stressed the need for strengthening families to bring healing in their communities. .... In keeping with the Year of the Family theme of the United Nations and in response to the expressed need of Native communities, the focus of this resource is strengthening the family. The workshop participants have had a variety of experiences. Phyllis Keeper served as a community teacher before becoming an ordained priest. Two members of St. Helen's parish participated: Elsie Monkman, a teacher who grew up in the rural community of Matheson Island; and Margaret Borley, a woman who enjoys working in Sunday school. Arlene Dieter-Grambois, recently ordained in the United Church, is an inner city outreach worker in Regina. Artist Annette Loutit is a student-leader a the Dr. Jessie Saulteaux Centre and a single parent deeply committed to hearing voices of youth. Jean Olthuis, Editor of 'Seeds & Sowers', assisted in planning and leading the workshop". -- Editorial.

"When the last leaves of summer were clinging to trees in autumn, a small group spent three days together to develop this resource: Phyllis Keeper, Gladys Cook and Mina Stevenson along with Laverne Jacobs, National Coordinator for Native Ministries [Anglican Church of Canada]. They were assisted by Pat Lee, Executive Archdeacon for the Diocese of Rupert's Land, Stan McKay Sr., a United Church partner, and Annette Loutit, our artist. .... The stories here relate to brokenness, loss and healing. Some stories relate to residential schools experience because that was formative in the lives of many participants .... Residential school experience touches young and old. It might be especially important for children and youth to hear these stories to help them better understand the brokenness in their own families and communities, and the theme is especially relevant to our spiritual journey in the Lent/Easter season, moving from brokenness to wholeness". -- Editorial.

"The result of assimilation policies and massive economiv changes is devastating. The suicide rate among Aboriginal youth stands at six times the national average; violent deaths are prevalent among all age groups. High personal losses occurring as communities undergo rapid change has created a crisis of epidemic proportions. Grief was chosen as a theme for this workshop by Aboriginal leaders. The purpose was to help participants 'name' personal loss, understand natural patterns of grief, explore cultural loss, and find healthy expressions of grief either through recovery of traditions or visioning new ways of being community together". -- Editorial.
"Students in ministry at the Centre include Gayleen Jacobs of Walpole Island; Aleace Davidson serving the community of Georgina Island; and Brian Montague, originally from Christian Island and now doing a ministry placement at Moravian Town. Elders present were Aileen Rice, serving her home community of Wasauksing near Parry Sound, Ontario and Nancy Scelbe of Georgina Island. Alf Dumont, former Speaker of the All Native Circle Conference, assisted in workshop planning. Workshop facilitators were Jean Olthuid, Children's Consultant in the United Church; Laverne Jacobs from Walpole Island, Coordinator of the Council for Native Ministries of the Anglican Church; Dan Manning and Glenys Huws, staff members at the Francis Sandy Centre". -- Editorial.

"Since 1992 the United and Anglican churches have been developing 'The Dancing Sun' in communities across Canada. .... Following publication of Volume VIII, 'Pathways to Healing', a consultation was held with First Nations in United and Anglican Churches. Communities wished to have materials dedicated to children for use in church schools and communities. They requested that these materials include spiritual nurture and growth for leaders. The small group of women, who gathered to make these decisions, formed the core group for developing materials: Doreen Angus, Ellen Cook, Hagar Head, Margaret Little, Maggie McLeod, Charlotte Sullivan, and Aileen Urquart. (Jean Olthuis, Children's Consultant at The United Church of Canada, and Joyce Clouston Carlson, editor, provided resource and support.) .... This resource us intended to empower children to name their concerns, and know how and whom to ask for help. Community issues that connect with the children's experience were carefully considered. Our commitment is to value each child, to help each child to link to community and cultural understandings. Each session celebrates the child's own experience, encourages trust building, and affirms the child's spiritual growth and learning. Sessions provide concrete actions which leaders and children may use to encourage the growth of each child". -- Intro.`
Contents divided into two main sections: Leader's Guide -- Session Outlines.
