An eyewitness account of Anglican work among Indigenous communities along the Metlahkatlah and Naas rivers
This nonfiction narrative follows church mission efforts in 19th‑century Canada, documenting how Indigenous communities encounter Christianity through Holy Baptism, on‑the‑ground teaching, and village life. The book portrays the rhythms of mission work, key moments of religious ceremony, and the interactions between missionaries and local leaders, including challenges and moments of trust, growth, and cultural exchange. It also highlights practical aspects of mission life, such as building a new church, supporting native industries, and establishing a village economy tied to education and faith.
