A Red Sand Project Service was held by Mary, Mother of the Church Parish Council (Winnipeg, MB) on June 15th to raise awareness for human trafficking. They were pleased to have City Counsellor, Janice Lukes and MLA, Jennifer Chen join them for the ceremony.
Following the service, all those in attendance were given bags with red sand to place in the cracks outside the church. The red sand reminds us that we cannot merely walk over the most marginalized people in our communities – those who ‘fall through’ the metaphoric cracks. The service was arranged by Betty-Jo Young, Social Justice Chairperson.
