Returning to Ceremony is the follow-up to Chantal Fiola's award-winning Rekindling the Sacred Fire and continues her ground-breaking examination of M�tis spirituality, debunking stereotypes such as "all M�tis people are Catholic," and "M�tis people do not go to ceremonies." Fiola finds that, among the M�tis, spirituality exists on a continuum of Indigenous and Christian traditions, and that M�tis spirituality includes ceremonies. For some M�tis, it is a historical continuation of the relationships their ancestral communities have had with ceremonies since time immemorial, and for others, it is a homecoming - a return to ceremony after some time away.Fiola employs a M�tis-specific and community-centred methodology to gather evidence from archives, priests' correspondence, oral history, storytelling, and literature. With assistance from six M�tis community researchers, Fiola listened to stories and experiences shared by thirty-two M�tis from six Manitoba M�tis communities that are at the heart of this book. They offer insight into their families' relationships with land, community, culture, and religion, including factors that inhibit or nurture connection to ceremonies such as sweat lodge, Sundance, and the Midewiwin. Valuable profiles emerge for six historic Red River M�tis communities (Duck Bay, Camperville, St Laurent, St Fran�ois-Xavier, Ste Anne, and Lorette), providing a clearer understanding of identity, culture, and spirituality that uphold M�tis Nation sovereignty.
