About this event
Preparing for Conversion Therapy Bans in Canada
Now that Bill C-4 has officially passed through Parliament and signed into law, Conversion Therapy Bans will be effective as of early January 2022. In light of these troubling legal developments, ARPA Canada invites you to a presentation designed to help you prepare.
This will be a practical training event tailored to church office bearers and pastors, building off Friday’s information evening. They seek to:
- Assist elders and pastors to respond well to church members with questions about sexual ethics and/or identity
- Help elders and pastors speak about issues of sexual ethics and personal identity in ways that are Biblically sound and that are aware of political and legal sensitivities
- Provide advice for pastors regarding the manner in which they can address sensitive issues in their sermons
- Help churches to formulate, develop, and adapt church policies
We hope to see you there!
