Alberta Knights Help Restore Indigenous Parish Church
0:00
In the 1990s, the Archdiocese of Edmonton designated Sacred Heart Church of the First Peoples as a national parish for First Nation, Inuit and Métis Catholics in Canada. Parishioners at Sacred Heart were heartbroken when an accidental fire broke out in the church in August 2020, resulting in $9 million in repairs and renovation work. Wally Streit, past state deputy of Alberta stepped up and led local Knights of Columbus and others in efforts to raise the money needed to restore the church. On July 25, 2022, Pope Francis visited the newly restored Sacred Heart Church during his pilgrimage to Canada.
