We acknowledge that we gather on the traditional territory of a number
of First Nations and we acknowledge their stewardship of this land
throughout the ages. We seek a new relationship with the Original
Peoples of this land, one based on honour and deep respect. We thank
all generations of Indigenous people who have taken care of this land
for thousands of years. May we who dwell on or visit this land also be
good stewards, honouring those who came before us, as we seek to
move forward to truth and reconciliation
Indigenous Lord’s Prayer:
O Great Spirit, our Father from above, we honour your name as sacred and holy. Bring your good road to us, where the beauty of your ways in the spirit world above is reflected in the earth below. Provide for us day by day – the elk, the buffalo, and the salmon. The corn, the squash and the wild rice. All the things we need for each day.
Release us from the things we have done wrong, in the same way we release others for the things done wrong to us.
Guide us away from the things that tempt us to stray from your good road and set us free from the evil one and his worthless ways. Aho! May it be so.
