Shepherds to the Flock

1993 50 min
Leaving soon

The United Church of Canada has long been pivotal in Church-based social activism. This tradition continues today, despite a split that has developed within the Church as a result of a 1988 vote to ordain gays and lesbians. Some ministers and their congregations want to turn the clock back on these reforms. On the crest of change, these shepherds to the flock are questioning not just what, but who, the Church stands for.
