We acknowledge that we are occupying unceded land of the Coast Salish, Lekwungen speaking people who have been sustained in body, mind and spirit through their relationship with this land for thousands of years. We are grateful to be part of a congregation that is hearing the call to continue learning of our colonial history and the on-going impacts of our privilege, and taking up the challenging and healing work toward reconciliation.
