Our Minister
Welcome Rev. James Ko
Join us us in welcoming our minister. Rev. Ko
I was born in Korea and immigrated to Canada with my parents. I studied at Northwest Baptist College and Vancouver School of Theology at UBC. I married Young Kim and have two boys (Joseph and Justin). I started the ministry in Manitoba in 2004. I moved to Kapuskasing in 2013 for 8 years’ Ecumenical Shared Ministry between the Presbyterian Church in Canada and the United Church of Canada. I am so excited to have another chapter in the Greater Sudbury area as minister of Trinity United Church in Lively. Let’s glorify the risen Lord together in our saying and doing.
Reckoning with the Wendigo
Featuring Edmund Metatawabin—a residential school survivor who was the Chief of Fort Albany and recently received the Order of Canada—this timely feature documentary takes us to the birthplace of Canada’s fur trade to explore the ironic and deadly problem of food insecurity that exists there today. The chaotic times we are experiencing now have been prophesied by many Indigenous communities; one legend in particular forewarns us about the dangers of consumption and greed. This suspenseful/heart wrenching, yet intimate/heartwarming documentary offers a glimpse into the lives of Moose Cree people living in Canada’s North, exploring the allegory of the Wendigo and consumption.
