10/10/2014

0 Comments

 
Smudging is an important practice to people from many different ethnicities, faiths and cultural groups.  Today, aboriginal support worker Norm Beauvais came in to talk about what smudging is to Canada's first peoples.  We learned about who smudges, why some people don't smudge, the purpose of smudging, the inclusiveness of smudging and the protocol of smudging.

Those who wanted to and could were invited to smudge.
