The Mohawk Chapel, Ontario’s oldest surviving church, will be holding a special ceremony on Sunday, September 29 to celebrate the church’s Royal Coat of Arms, which it received earlier this year from the British government.
The Royal Coat of Arms is a symbol that shows the allyship between Britain and the Six Nations community.
Dr. Barry Hill, Warden for Mohawk Chapel spoke to CJKS Radio about the event and the Royal Coat of Arms. He says many political figures will be in attendance from the surrounding areas, as well as representatives from Six Nations and both the British and Ontario governments.
Hill says the Coat of Arms will be available for viewing, along with other historic artifacts including a bible and silver bells that date back 300 years as a gift from Queen Anne to Six Nations.
Hill is hopeful that the event can also help strengthen its relationships with Ontario and Britain.
