Protest as Prayer

12+
With Julian Munro / King Julez
​
The need for spiritual care arises in all aspects of life and it is of critical importance to nourish one’s inner spirit. When it comes to justice work, protest movements and encampments those involved can become exhausted in mind, body and spirit. In 2024, Julian, along with classmates and faculty provided spiritual care to those present at UofT (University of Toronto) Pro Palestinian Encampment. As a result of this experience, Julian will invite us to consider how protest is like a deeply sacred prayer that transforms and works in us. Join in a meaningful and important discussion of what it means to find protest as prayer today.
