KAIROS is a Greek word meaning an opportune time to act for justice – Join us!
KAIROS Halifax is related to KAIROS Canada (www.kairoscanada.org ) uniting 10 Canadian churches and religious organizations in a faithful ecumenical response to the call to “do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God” (Micah 6:8). KAIROS educates and advocates for climate/ecological justice and for human rights locally and globally. KAIROS has developed and leads groups in the "KAIROS Blanket Exercise", an experiential learning method raising awareness of Canadian history from the Indigenous peoples’ perspective. Inspired by the Blanket Exercise, we've developed the "Palestine Land Exercise" which is experiential learning of a history seldom heard.
KAIROS Halifax meets the first Monday of the month on zoom. Join us!
