      Summary

      "This history is about a people, a place, and a past. It is about the AHNISHINABAE-OJIBWE people of Red Lake, Minnesota, since 1858 with a focus on St. Mary's Mission." - Father Bill Mehrkens.

      "This history of St. Mary's Mission is a wonderfully detailed account of the beginning and growth of the Mission, which still serves the Indian People of Red Lake Reservation. The trials and difficulties of ministering at the Mission are well described, ut always in a spirit "full of fair hope." In that same spirit, the successes and joys of ministering at the Mission are also told. The Benedictine presence at the Mission -- Brothers, Sisters, Priests -- is one of the glories of Catholicism in this part of the Catholic world." - (Most Rev.) Victor H. Balke, Bishop of Crookston.
