Jubilee 2025 – Book Study

Jubilee Book Study - The Serviceberry; Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World by Robin Wall Kimmerer 

Dive into a transformative journey with our book study on The Serviceberry: Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World by Robin Wall Kimmerer. This engaging series intersects with the themes of Jubilee 2025, exploring the profound connections between economy, ecological debt, and Indigenous traditions. From the gift economy to the principles of "storing our meat in the bellies of our brothers," we will delve into alternative economic models that promote sustainability and community. With Indigenous guest speakers, we will examine how these concepts resonate within the Canadian context, addressing contemporary issues such as tariffs and economic justice. Let's learn together how to foster a more equitable and reciprocal relationship with the land and each other.

Session 1 - The Spirit of Giving: By the end of this session, participants will have a deeper understanding of how the themes of abundance, reciprocity, and ecological justice intersect across The Serviceberry, the Canadian Ecumenical Jubilee campaign, and Indigenous cultural traditions.

Session 2 - A Gift in Motion: By the end of this session, participants will gain a deeper understanding of ecological debt and how it intersects with the themes of abundance, reciprocity, and ecological justice. This session aims to inspire participants to consider how Indigenous ecological wisdom and the principles of the Jubilee campaign can inform efforts to address ecological debt and promote sustainable living.

Session 3 - Innovative Economies: By the end of this session, participants will gain a deeper understanding of how Indigenous values can transform business practices and social enterprises. This session aims to inspire participants to consider how these principles can be applied to create more just and sustainable economic systems, in alignment with the themes of The Serviceberry and the Jubilee campaign.
