Please join us for an evening honouring our lost and stolen sisters.
This vigil will include a Sacred Fire for prayer offerings, as well as a documentary screening in room OA 1033. The documentary, Mshkawziikwewag: Strong Women, was created by one of our own community members and holds a special place in our hearts.
This event is also a space for comforting family members and friends mourning those lost to violence.
