LAND ACKNOWLEDGMENT

We respectfully acknowledge that our church, Immanuel Lutheran, and many of the spaces where congregants live are on unceded Coast Salish land, specifically the ancestral land of the Duwamish,  Suquamish, Stillaguamish, and Muckleshoot People. We recognize the stewardship of this land by the Coast Salish peoples since time immemorial, and the disruption of this work by colonization, a disruption that continues even today. We strive to remedy this injustice through our beliefs and transforming actions in and beyond our community.
