WE REMEMBER WITH LOVE

Our Annual Memorial Event "The Loving Memory Ceremony", takes place every December and offers our community a way to remember and pay tribute to their loved ones. This memorial event includes a candle lighting ceremony, musical performances, a poem reading, special guest speakers, and a Scroll of Memories presentation. 

 

Here, we share just some of the people who are dearly missed by our community.

If you would like more information on our Scroll of Memories, please contact us at info@bereavedfamilies.ca

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

We want to acknowledge the land on which we gather, and where the Centre for Grief and Healing (BFO-H/P) operates. This land has been and is still inhabited by many Indigenous Peoples since the last Ice Age which was 13,000 years ago. In particular, we acknowledge the territory of the Anishinabek-Ojibway/Chippewa, Huron-Wendat, and Haudenosaunee peoples. The land that is home to the First Nations, Metis, and Inuit people. We are grateful to now be on the land that is the land of Indigenous Peoples since time began.

​

The land we are presently on is under the stewardship of the Mississaugas of the Credit, who are the signatories of the treaty and holders of the area. We recognize that the land we are on was taken away through colonization, oppression, and expropriation. In the hopes for a better future and building relationships, we recognize, require, and honour what is in the truth and reconciliation report and the calls to action. We acknowledge and are grateful for having the privilege of being where we are, for this land, and for the Indigenous Peoples who have and continue to inhabit this land.

 

This Land Acknowledgment was created in collaboration with Indigenous Elder, Cat Criger.
