Our Organization
Sl4given is a not-for-profit group of diverse Sri Lankan Christian expatriates (Tamil, Sinhalese, Burgher, Colombo-Chetty) in the Greater Toronto area, Canada who together with other friends of Sri Lanka share a common love for the well being and future of Sri Lanka. Their conviction is that one of the keys to lasting peace and reconciliation is the application of the Christian principle of forgiveness.
Reconciliation Through Forgiveness
Peace, reconciliation, and strength through forgiveness have been the central themes of the variety of activities hosted by Sl4given in the Greater Toronto area. Celebrations of Hope have been a time to bring together Sri Lankan believers from several churches to worship and pray for the mutually agreed needs of the homeland. Special days have been held to explore together how to apply the principles of forgiveness. Sl4given has developed and piloted a 12 module curriculum on forgiveness (Journey to Forgiveness) that may be used by small groups.
Our Mission: To be a catalyst for peace and reconciliation among Sri Lankans by nurturing a culture of forgiveness among and through the expatriate and local body of Christ.
