2025 Emmanuel College Alumni/ae Day
Monday, May 12, 2025
Noon–5 p.m. (Lunch, Workshops, Meditation)
6–8:30 p.m. (Special Dinner, optional)
Join us on the Emmanuel College campus for another fantastic Alumni/ae Day, presented by the Emmanuel College Alumni Association (ECAA) and hosted by ECAA President, The Rev. Deb Walker Emm 9T7.
Beginning with lunch, this year’s program will include two outstanding workshops and the opportunity to participate in a multi-faith meditation. After the day’s program, there is the option to attend a special dinner celebrating the achievements of the 2024 Distinguished Alumnus and Service Awardees, as well as the centenary of the United Church of Canada and the anniversaries of Emmanuel’s Master of Psychospiritual Studies Program (formerly the Master of Pastoral Studies), Buddhist, and Muslim foci.
Complimentary tickets to this special dinner will be offered to alumni/ae who are also attending Alumni/ae Day, on a first-come, first-served basis due to space limitations.
