Fire claims Attawapiskat church April 22, 2021 Another church in a First Nations community has been destroyed by fire. St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church in the isolated James Bay community of Attawapiskat burned to the ground April 21. There are mixed reports on the fire’s origins, with some reports it was an act of arson while others say there is no known cause determined yet. Archbishop Terence Prendergast, administrator of the Hearst diocese, in a tweet said “Arson suspected; communication out & no details except building destroyed. Prayers for the people and their priest devastated by this loss.” The fire comes just two weeks after the Easter Sunday blaze that destroyed St. Theresa Point Catholic Church on the Manitoba First Nation.
