On December 10 RJC
hosted a Ten Thousand Villages fair-trade Christmas sale. Gifts purchased from Ten Thousand
Villages support all the workers in the distribution cycle with fair pay for
their services and production.
Over $1500.00 was raised.
Myriam Ullah,
representing Mennonite Central Committee Saskatchewan, spoke to the students on
December 11. She focused on the
work of MCC at home and around the world and highlighted programs for young
people. She also drew attention to
the persistent problem of hunger in our world.
On December 12
students lit the Joy candle in the Advent wreath. The candy cane was used as an object lesson, and the Faith
and Life Committee distributed a candy cane to each student. Anticipation of the holidays is
palpable in the hallways and the dorms as we take one step closer to
Christmas.
