Canada's First 9/11 Rendition to Torture:
An Evening to mark International Human Rights Day, With Benamar Benatta
Special Guests: Marina Nemat and Nicole Chrolavicius
Free

Benamar Benatta was the subject of Canada's first post-9/11 rendition
to torture when he was illegally handed over to U.S. authorities with
the false, dangerously inflammatory description that he was connected
with the events of the previous day. He spent the next five years
detained under conditions that the United Nations concluded constituted
torture.

Come on out to the Newman Centre for a fun night. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased at the door. Tickets include non-alcoholic drinks and snacks. There will be a cash bar: $3 for wine and beer, $4 for mixed drinks.

Speaker: Fr. Peter Shumelda

Rated 14A. Gran Torino is an unusual "Advent/Christmas" film, but there are several parallels in this film to the life of Christ and especially the Incarnation. Faith & Film Nights with the Daughters of St. Paul foster our ability to view culture with eyes of faith. We view the film in its entirety, then place our viewing experience in dialogue with the previous Sunday's Gospel reading.

Advent Potluck Social with Redeemer House Ministries

Young Adults in Action is an opportunity for Young Adults (age 18-30) and Redemptorists to come together and offer our talents, time and service to the poor and marginalized citizens of Toronto.

Each month we will explore a new facet of the social services provided in Toronto and will have a chance to meet and hear from the experts in those fields.

We will then examine what we have learned in the light of our faith and then launch into action with some hands on experiences that will be both challenging and fun.
