To all budding theologians and scholars at the Micah Centre: our friends at the Canadian Council of Churches are co-hosting an exciting opportunity for you! The deadline is coming soon - June 19 - so take a look and, if you're interested, apply!

The North America–Turtle Island Regional Ecumenical Theological Institute (NATI-RETI) is a fully immersive, residential theological learning program gathering 50 emerging Christian leaders from the United States and Canada for two weeks of study, prayer, and contextual encounter. Taking place August 3–16, 2026, in Detroit and Toronto, it is the inaugural North American expression of the World Council of Churches' proven Global Ecumenical Theological Institute model. Under the theme "Where Now for Visible Justice?", participants engage six interconnected pillars: solidarity with Indigenous communities, racism and anti-racism, secularism and laicity, wealth disparity and poverty, climate justice, and interfaith dialogue. Jointly convened by the Canadian Council of Churches and the National Council of Churches of Christ in the USA, with WCC accompaniment, NATI-RETI forms the next generation of ecumenical leaders and theologians. Participants will also have the option to earn academic credit through one of the member schools of the Toronto School of Theology upon completing the program requirements.

EVENT THIS WEEKEND! You're Invited!
What if the way we've been taught to follow Jesus is missing something essential - how to love our neighbors and serve our communities?
Drawing from his unique perspective as a public theologian, priest, and international speaker, Rev. Joash P. Thomas shows how justice isn't just a 'social issue' - it's at the very heart of what it means to follow Christ.
You’re invited to an evening dialogue with Rev. Thomas to learn more!
