← Why change Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples’ Day?
Guest Preacher Sunday, September 27 →

St. John’s stands on the land of Native peoples. For thousands of years this was the territory of the Council of Three Fires, the Ojibwe, Potawatomi, and Odawa. They welcomed the Ho-Chunk, Fox, Sauk, Miami, Kickapoo, and Illinois confederacy tribes and offered assistance to the first Europeans to travel here. These nations were forced from this land in 1833 by the Treaty of Chicago. St. John’s now stands on this land, seeking a new relationship of honor and respect for the Ojibwe, Lakota, Dakota, Navajo, Choctaw, Cherokee, Potawatomi, Odawa/Ottawa, Ho-Chunk, Menominee, Oneida, Blackfeet, Cree, and Alaskan Native peoples, our Chicago neighbors.
