Note from Edith and Neill Von Guten: "This photo was taken at Bloodvein River – on the east shore of Lake Winnipeg -- when Neill and others from Mennonite Pioneer Mission / Native Ministries travelled to that First Nation for Abe Hoeppner’s ordination on February 4, 1973. We were living in Manigotagan then and Neill travelled to Bloodvein on the winter road to get there. John Klassen was also MPM/Native Ministries staff, living at Matheson Island. Raymond Duck and Mike Green were leaders in the Bloodvein congregation. Neill says that the chain was a symbolic way to signify the partnership between MPM/Native Ministries, the larger Conference of Mennonites in Canada constituency, and Bloodvein River, as well as the churches at Matheson Island and Manigotagan with Bloodvein. Menno Wiebe was the Executive Secretary of MPM/Native Ministries then."

CMC Native Ministries Photograph Collection
These images were compiled by Mennonite Pioneer Mission and Native Ministries staff. They cover over sixty years of Mennonite-Indigenous relations and history, predominantly in Manitoba. Images of staff and those in the communities where they served make up the majority of the content. The images document life in the communities where the mission stations were situated and community-related events that include, but are not limited to, trips, camp outings, meetings, and conferences. The collection therefore gives a visual overview of MPM and Native Ministries related activity over time.
