Rising Above is inviting members of the Indigenous community, faith community, and the public, to show their support for the Indigenous of our country at the “Standing with the Nations” event on Wednesday, August 11, from 7pm to 8pm.  

With the latest news and issues relating to the Indigenous community, Rising Above will be addressing some of the atrocities that have come to the forefront in our country. 

During the one-hour event, past participants of the Rising Above program will be sharing their stories. The evening will also include musicians from Sturgeon Lake and Rising Above Executive Director Mel Siggelkow offering words of healing and reaching out to restore relations with Indigenous people. 

After the event, for those who wish, there will be a time of prayer and sharing stories. 

This is a free public event. Since there is no seating at the Muskoseepi Park Amphitheatre, please bring a lawn chair.
