"It is important that we take a moment to think about the land we are located on. While we are the current stewards of this land, it was not always so. We recognize that for thousands of years before the London Township Treaty, Treaty 6, of 1796, there were already peoples here who were stewards of the land. The Anishnabewaki, the Attawandaronk, the Mississauga, and others. And before there were people, the land was. As Christians of European heritage and Indigenous peoples alike, we acknowledge that the land which sustains us all, the land on which we live and move and have our being, belongs to God our Creator."
