 You are invited to attend a workshop for an opportunity to learn, discuss and develop tools to understand and respond to behaviours that occur within our Cathedral setting which may be considered eccentric or disruptive.  There will be opportunities for interactive discussion and learning in the context of Christian Hospitality.   We are very fortunate to have, as our guest presenter, Jane Hope, Associate Warden for Hospitality at Christ Church Cathedral Vancouver. Jane has been a leader in training and developing tools in her community where she speaks of the “spirituality of greeting,” often amidst challenging circumstances.  RSVP to the office.
