It's Your Call
On the latest episode of It's Your Call, hosts Karen Medland and Andrew Richardson have a conversation with "Padre" Megan Jones, a Canadian Forces chaplain based in Cold Lake, Alberta. Megan shares her experience of being called to serve as a chaplain in the Canadian Armed Forces, and how it's very different from what most people would think when they are discerning a call to ministry.
We invite you to listen to the podcast here. It's Your Call is a podcast from the Office of Vocation of The United Church of Canada.

Transportation Is Key to Improving Lives Too often, lack of transportation is a significant barrier that prevents people from accessing the support they need. It’s hard to keep appointments, go to school, or visit family and friends with no way to travel. High gas prices, the cost of a vehicle, lack of public transit or a system that does not reach job-rich areas are barriers to creating a better life. Here’s how your generosity is making a difference. [Photo credit: 99mimimi from Pixabay]
