The two British Columbia churches, St Ann’s Church and Chopaka Church were completely destroyed by fires which started within an hour of each other. Officers are calling this “suspicious”. The destruction of these two churches comes after two other churches in the province, the Sacred Heart Church and St. Gregory’s Church, were both destroyed last Monday as Canada celebrated National Indigenous People’s Day. Liquid accelerants are believed to have been used, one fire official said.

Two more Catholic churches burn down on Indigenous land in BC Interior

Two more Catholic churches on Indigenous land in B.C.’s Interior burned to the ground early Saturday morning. The latest were located on reserves in the Similkameen Valley, and come just days after two Catholic churches burned down on Indigenous land in the southern Okanagan. Chief Keith Crow, of the Lower Similkameen Indian Band, said St. Ann’s Church on the Chuchuwayha reserve in Hedley and the Lower Similkameen Indian Band church, the Chopaka Church, were destroyed by fire at about 4 a.m. He said the fires were suspicious and “possibly” linked to the other two in the Okanagan.

Author of the article: Bill Gervais Publishing date: Jun 27, 2021 • 1 day ago • 4 minute read Article content Media stories dominating the news cycle in early June were the discovery of 215 graves at the Kamloops Residential School and the murder of four members of a Muslim family, leaving a nine-year-old child orphaned. As our country struggled to make sense of these tragic stories, the readings from the Revised Common Lectionary for Christian Churches drew on Jesus’ parable of the mustard seed, the smallest of all seeds that grows into the greatest shrub. (Mark 4:32) As I considered the application of Jesus’ parable to our contemporary church, I could not help but wonder how these tragedies, cultural genocide and the execution of a hate crime on the streets of London have hindered the growth of the Kingdom of God.
