Westminster Abbey, Mission, BC

We would like to acknowledge the shared traditional ancestral territory of the Sumas First Nation and Matsqui First Nation. These two First Nations are a part of the Sto:lo Nation. The Sto:lo people are “the people of the river”. The Sto:lo people have lived in the Fraser Valley for 10,000 years. It is for this reason that we acknowledge the traditional territory in which we reside.
