• Last Month we asked you to consider petitioning international leaders to drop Haiti's debt. Joel Edwards of Micah Challenge International tells us some promising news on this in his blog post: Hope in Haiti's Rubble.
  
  
• More from Micah Challenge: "The Silent Crises: Status of the Millennium Development Goals in 2010".
  
  
• The Winter Olympics in Vancouver and Whistler are a celebration of athletic achievement. In See No Evil Julia Beazly of EFC's Centre for Faith and Public Life tells us of a troubling underside of such public specatcles—Human Trafficking.
  
  
• Civility in Politics has been in short supply in recent Canadian memory. Famed commentator and Historian Jack Granatstein wonders, not so tongue in cheek, if we need to look south of the border for a better model.
  
  
• Ecumenical work by the Christian Reformed Church is expanding. Check out the latest news and summary reports in their February 2010 newsletter.
  
  
• Regular readers of Mobile Justice will know that CCG is committed to partnerships for Justice and Peace. Partnerships are particularly important for the work of healing and reconciliation with the Indigenous Peoples of Canada. Beyond our formal partnerships with Kairos Indigenous Rights Circle and the Aboriginal Ministries Council of the Evangelical Fellowship of Canada, CCG is appreciating the chance to journey with other church based organizations. Take a moment to learn about some of the great Indigenous Justice work happening in these places:
  Presbyterian Church Healing and Reconciliation Program
  Quaker Aboriginal Affairs Committee
  Mennonite Central Committee Canada's Aboriginal Neighbours Program
  United Church Aboriginal Ministries
  Anglican Inidigenous Ministries
  
  

Mobile Justice is an instrument of justice dialogue for the Christian Reformed churches (CRC) in Canada.
