Parminderjeet Virk rejoined the board in the Sikh seat after an absence taken to pursue her studies, and Henri Lock of the United Church replaced Malcolm Read, who stepped down as the Christian board member. The board is very grateful to Malcolm for his exemplary service over the past year, as he launched and hosted the very successful Multifaith Lunch &amp; Learn series at Christ Church Cathedral. We\u2019re very happy to report that Malcolm will again host the noontime series at Christ Church Cathedral, in a slightly different format, from Jan. 18 \u2013 Feb. 15, 2018.<\/p>\n<p>Henri Lock, a chaplain for over 20 years with the University of Victoria\u2019s Multifaith Services, is warmly welcomed as our new Christian board member. Henri\u2019s experience is especially appreciated, with VMS seeking to involve and serve greater numbers of youth.<\/p>\n<p>The AGM also served as the project launch of our upcoming monthly <em>Living Well Dying Well<\/em> program, (Jan &#8211; May 2018). Many thanks to expert facilitator Kim Holl, of the Centre for Earth &amp; Spirit!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/victoriamultifaith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_20171126_150624.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-587 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/victoriamultifaith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_20171126_150624-300x186.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"186\" srcset=\"https:\/\/victoriamultifaith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_20171126_150624-300x186.jpg 300w, https:\/\/victoriamultifaith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_20171126_150624-768x475.jpg 768w, https:\/\/victoriamultifaith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_20171126_150624-1024x634.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/victoriamultifaith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_20171126_150624-485x300.jpg 485w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>L-R Sridevi Ganti, Janine Theobald, Christine Johnston,Shoshana Litman, Ali Hemani, Sheila Flood.
