Land Acknowledgement

We, as Catholic School Chaplains of Ontario, acknowledge that we work, pray, live, and play on Indigenous territories. We acknowledge that these lands and waters have been honoured and cared for by First Peoples since time immemorial and we strive to learn from them in order to live gently and respectfully of the earth’s resources. We are committed to learning from the traditional guardians of these territories, from the treaties, and from the lands and waters themselves in order to work in good ways as ministers to our school communities. We are sincerely and faithfully committed to working towards right relationships on the journey of reconciliation.
