Seeing The Forest Anew

Our forests – particularly old-growth forests of extraordinary complexity – are some of the most diverse ecosystems on Earth. Come celebrate their spiritual richness, and learn what My Climate Plan and other organizations are doing to protect them, restore hope, and restore the sacred balance. Plus, find out what Reilly’s day job is! Whatever your motivation, please make time for this communal celebration of both the forests and the trees.

Reilly is an organizer and facilitator with extensive experience running digital campaigns. Prior to entering seminary, she was the Director of Communications and Public Engagement at the David Suzuki Foundation, and she currently serves as Co-Founder of Climate Plan, a membership-based organization that helps people and their communities respond to climate change. She received her MDiv from the University of Toronto (graduating with the prize for Highest Standing), and completed her chaplaincy training (CPE Basic) at Victoria General Hospital.

Her ministry work focuses on the twin challenges of spiritual resilience and systems change in the face of the polycrisis, the interlocking crisis of crises that defines our time. She lives in James Bay on the unceded territories of the Swenghung, a Lekwungen-speaking people, with her partner Jamie and their children Avery and Elyse.
