ReturningtoSpirit

We are an Indigenous-led not for profit organization delivering experiential reconciliation workshops across Canada since 2001.

We held a blanket ceremony to bid farewell to RTS board member, Richard Gagnon, Archbishop emeritus of Wpg Archdiocese. For 15+ years, he has contributed so much to our growth & success. We wish him all the best in retirement & express our gratitude for our years of partnership.

Sometimes we don't realize how disconnected we've become until we find ways to reconnect. At the core of our work is #connection, to ourselves, to others, to life.

Whether it's a hug, a handshake or an honest conversation, connecting is how we return to our true spirit.

[ReturningtoSpirit @RTSCanada]

We're kicking off 2025 in #Ontario, #Saskatchewan & #Manitoba! We've got a lot planned for this year and we hope you'll be a part of it!

One thing that always surprises people is that there is so much joy in the work that we do! We tackle difficult, often emotional subjects that have weighed us down and in doing so, we become lighter, creating space for laughter & joy.

Every RTS certificate & every person who completes our workshops inspires us to continue this work.

We provide the tools but its you, the participant that makes the choice to do the work.

To be open, honest & vulnerable is courageous work & we thank you for making us proud.

Today is #GivingTuesdayCA, a day where you get to choose what matters most to you.
Choosing to donate to RTS is a choice to repair harms, reconnect to ourselves/others, heal from our past & create healthier, happier communities.
What a powerful choice!

[ReturningtoSpirit @RTSCanada]

The countdown is on! Giving Tuesday is in 2 days and we need your help!
What does a donation to RTS mean? It means changing lives, uniting communities, healing hurts, your gift means everything!
Please consider supporting RTS on Giving Tuesday.

What if? Usually we think of worst case scenarios, what we're afraid of or convinced others will say/do.

But what if...we're open to new possibilities, new friendships? What if we have convos we've avoided?

#Reconciliation is about being open to what's possible. Are you open?

[ReturningtoSpirit @RTSCanada]

When we believe in something, we nurture it, we invest in it, we don't just hope it will be, we make it so.

Today, we wear orange & we continue to create #reconciliation for ourselves, our families & our communities.

Why do we take group photos? The journey of reconciliation is something special, something powerful, something worth celebrating
In a time where we often see division & disconnection what a beautiful thing it is to celebrate ppl coming together w/ a common goal of #reconciliation

[ReturningtoSpirit @RTSCanada]

Good news! We've added another Roots of Reconciliation workshop to our August calendar.
